Sesame Sautéed Cabbage with Garlic, Ginger & Chili

🧂 Ingredients

• 0.5 head of cabbage

  sliced into roughly 2cm / 1 inch pieces
• 2 cloves garlic

  minced, pressed or mashed
• 1 tablespoon grated ginger
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon sesame oil
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

  for frying
• 2 teaspoons sesame seeds

  mixed colors if available

Instructions

• 1 Cut the cabbage by cutting the head in half, and then each half into a quarter.
  Slice each quarter lengthwise 2-3 times, and then along the short edge another
  2-3 times.
• 2 Toss the cabbage in a bowl with all the other ingredients and rub everything
  together with your hands for a minute or so until you feel the fibers in the
  cabbage relax and soften. Then the cabbage is ready to fry.
• 3 Heat the vegetable oil in a wok or skillet over high heat.
• 4 Once the oil is hot (slightly rippling but not so hot that it's popping) toss
  the cabbage in being careful of any splashback. Stir the cabbage frequently,
  sautéing for about 5 minutes or until fully softened and starting to turn a bit
  translucent.
• 5 Serve hot or cold, garnished with more sesame seeds if you like.
