Remove the cores and then slice fairly thin. Melt the butter in an ovenproof casserole dish and add the ham cut into little sticks about 2.5 cm (1 inch) long. Let it simmer gently in the butter without browning for 5 minutes then stir in the cabbage and turn it over in the butter until it is all coated and glistening.
