Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 small head green cabbage
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium, diced yellow onion
- 3 cloves, minced garlic
- 2 medium, julienned carrots
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon red chili flakes
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 0.5 teaspoon (adjust to taste) salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons, chopped (optional garnish) fresh parsley
Instructions
Remove the outer leaves of the cabbage, slice it in half, and chop it into thin strips.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Once the oil is hot, add the diced onion and sauté for 2–3 minutes until softened and lightly golden.
Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds until fragrant.
Stir in the julienned carrots and cook for 2 minutes to start softening them.
Add the chopped cabbage to the skillet and toss to combine evenly with the other ingredients.
Sprinkle smoked paprika, ground cumin, and red chili flakes over the mixture. Stir well to distribute the spices.
Drizzle the soy sauce over the cabbage and stir again to ensure everything is evenly coated.
Season the mixture with salt and black pepper, adjusting to your taste preference.
Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, for 6–8 minutes until the cabbage is tender but still slightly crunchy.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Remove the skillet from heat and garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired.
Serve warm as a side dish or a light main course.
