Serves 4
The name for this dish means "mixed together" - rumbled, and "bashed
together" - thumped. This is a meatless main course but can also be served as a
vegetable dish along with meat.

1 medium onion or the white part of two leeks, finely chopped
3 oz butter

through, add the cooked potatoes and cabbage. Add a little cream, season to taste and beat
together.
