Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 medium head White cabbage
- 1 medium Onion
- 2 pieces Garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 large Carrot
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds (optional)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley or cilantro (optional)
Instructions
Rinse the white cabbage under cold water. Cut it into quarters, remove the core, and thinly slice the cabbage into strips.
Peel and finely chop the onion. Peel and mince the garlic cloves. Peel the carrot and cut it into thin matchstick-sized strips or grate it using a coarse grater.
Heat a large skillet or wok over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Once the oil is hot, add the chopped onions and sauté for 2-3 minutes until they become translucent.
Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds until fragrant.
Stir in the sliced cabbage and carrot. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until the cabbage begins to wilt and soften.
Add the soy sauce, ground black pepper, and salt. Stir well to ensure the seasonings are evenly distributed. Cook for another 5 minutes, allowing the cabbage to absorb the flavors.
If desired, sprinkle sesame seeds over the dish and stir them in during the last minute of cooking.
Remove the skillet from heat. Transfer the cabbage stir-fry to a serving dish and garnish with freshly chopped parsley or cilantro for added color and flavor, if using.
Serve hot as a side dish or enjoy it as a light meal with a side of rice or crusty bread.
