Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 1 medium Onion
- 1 head Cabbage
- 1 medium Carrot
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 200 grams Optional protein (shrimp, chicken, or pork, sliced thinly)
Instructions
Prepare the ingredients: Mince the garlic, slice the onion thinly, chop the cabbage into bite-sized pieces, and julienne the carrot into thin strips.
If using protein, heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large pan or wok over medium heat. Add the protein (shrimp, chicken, or pork) and sauté until cooked. Remove from the pan and set aside.
In the same pan, add more oil if needed, then sauté the minced garlic until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the sliced onion and stir until translucent.
Add the julienned carrots and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until slightly tender.
Toss in the chopped cabbage and stir everything together. Cook for 3-5 minutes, or until the cabbage becomes tender but still slightly crisp.
Drizzle the soy sauce over the vegetables and return the cooked protein (if used) to the pan. Stir to combine.
Season with salt and black pepper to taste, adjusting as needed.
Remove the pan from heat and transfer the Ginisang Repolyo to a serving plate. Serve warm with steamed rice.
