Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 medium head Green cabbage
- 2 tablespoons Fresh ginger
- 2 medium cloves Garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds
- 2 stalks Scallions (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Remove any wilted outer leaves from the cabbage and slice it in half. Cut out the core and thinly shred the cabbage into strips.
Peel and grate the fresh ginger. Mince the garlic cloves.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat.
Once the oil is hot, add the ginger and garlic, cooking for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, but not browned.
Add the shredded cabbage to the skillet and stir to combine with the ginger and garlic. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage starts to soften.
Drizzle soy sauce and sesame oil over the cabbage, and sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Stir well to coat evenly.
Continue cooking for another 5-7 minutes until the cabbage is tender but still slightly crisp.
Remove from heat, sprinkle with sesame seeds, and toss lightly to distribute.
Transfer to a serving dish and garnish with sliced scallions if desired. Serve warm.
