Krpice sa zeljem is an old Croatian dish that is traditionally prepared in the northern parts of the country. It is prepared by combining cabbage, onions, and seasonings (especially black pepper) with a type of pasta known as krpice or flekice, which can be small or large, and rectangular or irregular in shape.

The onions were not used in the original preparation of the dish, but nowadays they're a common addition. This simple and quick dish is often enriched by the addition of bacon or sausage bits, transforming it into a gourmet meal.
