Core and chop cabbage. Peel and shred 1/2 medium carrot (my husband doesn't like too much carrot - says it makes it too sweet). In a large pot melt the butter, and add the oil, salt, pepper, thyme, red pepper flakes, and garlic. Add the cabbage and the carrot and toss with tongs to coat. Add the broth and use the empty can to add 1 can of water. Cover and simmer approximately 30 minutes, tossing gently occasionally.
