Pork and Cabbage ‘Caillettes’ (Meatballs)

Of course, we do have very much the same thing – faggots – in traditional English cooking. The caul fat is fairly essential in their preparation and you can get it from most good butchers. It is sold in sheets and, when you get them home and start working with them, you’ll probably find that great parts are unusable, as they are filled with holes. It is, however, incredibly cheap and freezes well.
