Ingredients

• 1 medium head (about 6 cups shredded) Green cabbage
• 4 large, minced Garlic cloves
• 1 medium, finely sliced (optional, adjust to taste) Red chili
• 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 2 teaspoons Fish sauce
• 1 tablespoon Brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 1 tablespoon Lime juice
• 2 stalks, finely sliced Scallions
• 2 tablespoons, chopped (optional) Fresh cilantro

Directions

Step 1

Remove the tough outer leaves of the cabbage and thinly slice it into shreds. Wash and drain thoroughly.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, fish sauce, and brown sugar until the sugar dissolves. Set aside.

Step 3

Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the vegetable oil and let it heat up for 30 seconds.

Step 4

Add the minced garlic and sliced chili to the hot oil. Stir-fry for 30 seconds to release the aroma, being careful not to burn the garlic.

Step 5

Increase the heat to high and add the shredded cabbage to the skillet. Toss to coat the cabbage in the garlic and oil.

Step 6

Pour the sauce mixture over the cabbage and stir-fry for 3-5 minutes, or until the cabbage is tender but still slightly crisp.

Step 7

Remove from heat and stir in the lime juice and sliced scallions. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.

Step 8

Transfer to a serving dish, garnish with fresh cilantro if desired, and serve immediately. Enjoy!
