    I was never a fan of some vegetables until I realized you could stir fry them and not just steam/boil the crap out of them like my parents did. Bonus, cabbage is extremely cheap where I live so this is a frugal meal too! Recipe (I don’t measure exactly when making the sauce):

    – Add less than 1 tbsp of sesame seed oil to pan

    – Add about 1 tbsp soy sauce and mirin

    – Add garlic and ginger paste to taste (I use about a tbsp)

    – Add sambal oelek (or cayenne powder) to taste (about 2 tsp for me)

    – Heat in pan

    – When hot, add chopped red and/or green cabbage (I used a 1/4 head of each)

    – Cook to desired consistency (I like mine with some crunch)

    – Garnish with whatever you like – I had some furikake on hand so I used that

    Great to add over rice or as a side for any protein, or eaten by itself!
