Break each large leaf off at the base, you'll need maybe 4 large leaves per person. Cut out the thick central stalk running up the middle of each leaf, in a sort of narrow V-shape. Shred the leaves into strips but not too finely, like pasta but maybe an inch or so wide.
Get a pan or pot with a tight fitting lid. Cast iron is great but any should do. Throw in the cabbage with a large knob of butter and a splash (you'll need hardly any, less than you think- 50 mls?) of water. Add half a stock cube (chicken or veg) if you like or a sprinkle of powder, but if neither add a good sprinkle of salt and pepper. Over a low heat braise the cabbage, turning over every now and again so the same bit is not sitting in the butter/water emulsion at the bottom. Tongs are good. Cook until tender (10 mins ish but possibly a lot less), but the cabbage should be green and not showing any brown. There should be very little water left.
Eat piping hot. Try this once plz and if you still don't like cabbage then fair enough.
