  • About

This is a simple side dish, yet one that packs savoriness in vegetables. Every ingredient here works in concert to support the umami notes in the cabbage.

Ingredients

  • 1¾ lb [800 g] green cabbage
  • 1 Tbsp grapeseed oil or other

Method

Cut the cabbage into large chunks and separate the leaves.

Heat the grapeseed oil in a wok or large stainless-steel saucepan over high heat until it starts to shimmer. Add the garlic and cook until it just starts to brown, 30 to 45 seconds. Add the cabbage and stir-fry until the leaves begin to wilt and get slightly seared, 10 to 12 minutes. Add the pepper and season with salt. Drizzle
