How to Make Crispy Cabbage and Egg Fried Rice: A Fiber-Rich and Diet-Friendly Cabbage Recipe
Introducing a delicious cabbage and egg fried rice packed with dietary fiber. It’s simple to make and makes a wonderful meal on busy days.
Main Ingredients
- 1 bowl of cooked rice
- 1 handful of fresh cabbage (about 1/4 head)
- A little bit of green onion
- 3 cloves of garlic
- 1 Tbsp soy sauce
- A pinch of black pepper
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, finely chop the cabbage, which is the main ingredient for the fried rice. Slice or mince the garlic, and finely chop the green onion. Prepping the ingredients like this makes the cooking process much smoother.
Step 2
Heat 1-2 tablespoons of cooking oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Stir-fry the minced garlic and chopped green onion until they become fragrant. The aroma of garlic and onion needs to infuse into the oil to enhance the fried rice’s flavor.
Step 3
Now, add the prepared cabbage to the frying pan and stir-fry it with the other ingredients. To keep the cabbage crisp and slightly tender, it’s best to stir-fry quickly over high heat rather than for too long. Cook for about 2-3 minutes.
Step 4
Once the cabbage is cooked to your liking, push the ingredients to one side of the pan. Crack 1-2 eggs into the empty space and scramble them. Once the eggs are cooked, gently mix them with the cabbage.
Step 5
Add the bowl of cooked rice and use a spatula to break up any clumps of rice. Stir-fry everything together evenly, mixing the rice with the cabbage and scrambled eggs. Ensure every grain of rice is coated with flavor.
Step 6
To season the fried rice, pour 1 tablespoon of soy sauce along the edge of the pan. The soy sauce will caramelize slightly, adding depth to the flavor. After adding the soy sauce, stir-fry well with the rice.
Step 7
Finally, add a pinch of black pepper to enhance the aroma. Adjust the amount of pepper to your preference. The pungent aroma of black pepper will elevate the taste of your fried rice.
Step 8
Stir-fry everything together once more to ensure all ingredients are well combined. Your delicious fried rice, featuring crispy cabbage and tender eggs, is now complete! Enjoy it hot right away.
