Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Green cabbage
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves
- 1 tablespoon Fresh ginger
- 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce (low sodium)
- 1 teaspoon Rice vinegar
- 0.5 teaspoon Red chili flakes
- 2 stalks Green onions
- 1 teaspoon Toasted sesame seeds
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Remove any damaged outer leaves from the cabbage, then slice the cabbage into thin strips. Wash and dry thoroughly.
Peel and mince the garlic cloves. Peel and grate the fresh ginger using a microplane or fine grater. Thinly slice the green onions and set aside for garnish.
Heat the sesame oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the skillet. Stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn them.
Add the sliced cabbage to the skillet and toss to coat in the aromatic oil. Stir-fry for 4-5 minutes, or until the cabbage starts to soften but still retains some crunch.
Pour in the soy sauce and rice vinegar, then sprinkle in the red chili flakes, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the cabbage is tender and evenly coated in the sauce.
Remove the skillet from heat. Transfer the stir-fried cabbage to a serving dish.
Garnish with sliced green onions and toasted sesame seeds before serving.
Serve warm as a side dish or light main. Enjoy!
