Sweet Ginger Soy Fried Cabbage

Step 1

Cut the cabbage in half, and then cut out the core by cutting an upside V around the cabbage core

Step 2

Slice the cabbage into slices and set it aside for later

Step 3

Cut the onion into slices and set it aside

Step 4

Peel the garlic and finely chop it and set it aside

Step 5

Grate the ginger and set it aside (if you don't grate the ginger, cut them into slices instead, so you can remove them later before serving)

Step 6

In a small bowl combine all the ingredients from the 'Sauce' ingredient list and set aside

Step 7

In a large frying pan, add a bit of oil and 1/2 tablespoon of butter and set the stove to medium high heat

Step 8

Add the garlic and ginger and brown it for approximately 1 minute until it is slightly brown and fragrant. Make sure to move it around so it doesn't burn

Step 9

Add the cabbage into the frying pan and stir it a bit and flip the garlic and ginger from below the pan so that it is on top of the cabbage so they don't burn

Step 10

Add the onions on top of the cabbage

Step 11

Let the cabbage char by not touching it for about 1-2 minutes

Step 12

Once 1-2 minutes pass, stir the cabbage around and mix the onions into it. Once it is well mixed, let it sit untouched again for another 1-2 minutes to let the onions and cabbage char again

Step 13

Once the 1-2 minutes has passed again, add in the sauce and mix the cabbage well with the sauce and let the cabbage soften by letting it cook for another 1 minute

Step 14

Turn off the heat and plate it and enjoy with rice or noodles. (If you cut the ginger into slices, remove the ginger slices)
