CABBAGE AND EGGS

3. Sauté Aromatics

Add the chopped garlic (and onions if using) to the pan. Stir for about 30–60 seconds until fragrant. Be careful not to burn them.

4. Cook the Cabbage

Add the sliced cabbage to the pan. Stir well to coat it in oil.

Cook for about 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally. The cabbage will soften and reduce in volume. You want it tender but still slightly crisp.

Season with salt and pepper at this stage.

5. Add the Eggs

Push the cabbage to one side of the pan. Pour the beaten eggs into the empty space.

Let the eggs sit for a few seconds, then gently scramble them. Once they begin to set, mix them together with the cabbage.

6. Combine and Finish

Stir everything together and cook for another 1–2 minutes until the eggs are fully cooked but still soft.

Taste and adjust seasoning. You can add soy sauce, chili flakes, or herbs for extra flavor.
