Stir Fried Napa Cabbage

This recipe was given to me by my Chinese mother-in-law. I love Napa cabbage because it’s slightly milder and a little sweeter than regular cabbage. This is a recipe which is very quick and easy to do, and it makes a great side dish. You can also serve it over rice. #Vegetable #Vegetarian #Vegan #Side dish

Ingredient

Food ration :

4 to 6 people

Cooking time :

~6 minutes

1 head

Napa cabbage

1 Tablespoon

olive oil

garlic cloves, minced

1/4 cup

Shaohsing Rice Cooking Wine

1-2 teaspoons

Sesame oil

2-3 Tablespoons

Soy sauce

1/4 teaspoons

Salt

A few

grounds of Freshly ground pepper

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

Chop the cabbage into large chunks.

* Step 2

Soak the cabbage in water and swish it with your fingers to remove and dirt or grit. Drain the water out.

* Step 3

Add the oil to a pan and fry the garlic over medium-low heat until it is fragrant and a little soft. Don’t let it brown. If your garlic is chopped finely this will only take about a minute or less.

* Step 4

Add the cabbage along with the rice wine, sesame oil, and soy sauce. Cover and let steam for about 5 minutes. Pictured here is the Chinese rice wine that I use.

* Step 5

After five minutes, check the doneness of the cabbage. If it is not to your liking, continue to cook it for a few minutes more. Toss all of the cabbage leaves so that they are well coated by the sauce. You can add salt and pepper to taste at this time.

* Step 6

OPTIONAL: I add a few squirts of Bachan’s Japanese Barbecue Sauce. (This sauce can be used on veggies, meats, rice, noodles, etc. It’s kind of magical, honestly. It’s available online, but I found this bottle at Costco.)
