 stew in a Dutch oven with thyme and bayleaf. Bring to a boil. Add potatoes,


 reduce heat, cover and cook gently 30 minutes. Add cabbage, salt and


 pepper, cover and simmer 10 minutes. Taste stew and adjust seasoning. Stir


 cornstarch with water until smooth. Bring stew to boil, push meat and


 vegetables to one side as much as possible and gradually stir cornstarch


 mixture into liquid. Stir until boiling, slightly thicken and clear. Serve


 immediately sprinkled with parsely.
