• Garlic – 2 cloves, minced (optional but adds great flavor)

• Soy sauce – 1 teaspoon (optional, for umami flavor)

• Green onions or herbs – for garnish (optional)

Instructions

1. Prepare the ingredients

• Rinse the cabbage and shred it finely with a knife.

• Crack the eggs into a bowl and beat them with a fork or whisk. Add a pinch of salt.

• Mince the garlic and slice the onion if using.

2. Cook the cabbage

1. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a medium frying pan or wok over medium-high heat.

2. Add the garlic (and onion if using). Sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.

3. Add the shredded cabbage. Stir-fry for 3–5 minutes until it starts to soften but still has a little crunch.

4. Season with salt, pepper, and soy sauce (if using). Mix well.

3. Add the eggs

You have two ways to do this:

• Option A (Scrambled in): Push the cabbage to one side of the pan. Add a little oil if the pan is dry, pour in the beaten eggs, and scramble gently. Once they start to set, mix with the cabbage and cook together for another minute.

• Option B (Omelet style): Remove the cabbage to a plate. Pour the beaten eggs into the pan, let them set slightly, then spread the cabbage evenly over the eggs before folding and cooking like an omelet.

4. Taste and finish

• Adjust seasoning if needed — a bit more salt, soy sauce, or pepper.

• Optionally, drizzle with a few drops of sesame oil or top with chopped green onions.

🍽️ Serving Suggestions

• Serve hot, on its own or with rice, toast, or flatbread.

• Add a side of chili sauce or ketchup if you like it spicy.

💡 Tips

• For a spicy version, add chili flakes or sliced fresh chili.

• You can also include grated carrots, bell peppers, or mushrooms for variety.
