Ingredients- 4 slices of bread
- 20g butter
- 100g fresh cabbage
- 30g carrot
- 3 fresh eggs
- 3-4 pinches of salt
- A little cooking oil
- A little ketchup
- A little sugar
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Prepare your vegetables for two sandwiches. Finely shred about 1.5 cups of cabbage. For the carrot, julienne it thinly, using less than the amount of cabbage according to your preference. These vegetables will add a wonderful crunch to your toast.
Step 2
To ensure the cabbage is thoroughly cleaned, especially the inner leaves, soak the shredded cabbage in water for a short while. Then, rinse it gently under running water and pat it dry. This step helps maintain the freshness of your ingredients.
Step 3
Crack 3 fresh eggs into a clean bowl. Add 3-4 pinches of salt. Whisk the eggs gently with a fork or whisk to break up the yolks and whites, preparing them to be mixed with the vegetables. Pre-seasoning the eggs ensures the flavor is evenly distributed.
Step 4
Add the shredded cabbage and carrots to the whisked eggs. Gently toss everything together until the vegetables are evenly coated with the egg mixture. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the vegetables mushy.
Step 5
Heat a non-stick pan over low heat and add a small amount of cooking oil. Pour half of the egg and cabbage mixture into the pan. Since cabbage releases a lot of moisture, maintaining low heat is crucial to prevent burning. Use a spatula or a square mold to shape the mixture into a neat square as it cooks. This shape makes it easy to place on the bread later.
Step 6
Cook slowly over low heat until the mixture is cooked through. Gently nudge the cooked side with your spatula; if it moves easily, it’s time to flip. Carefully flip it over and cook the other side until golden brown. This forms the delicious filling for your cabbage toast.
Step 7
For an extra layer of flavor, lightly toast the bread slices with a little butter until golden brown. If you don’t have butter, toasting the bread on a dry pan until crisp is also a great option. The crispiness of the bread will complement the soft filling beautifully.
Step 8
Place the cooked egg and cabbage filling onto one slice of the toasted bread. Then, generously drizzle with ketchup for a tangy kick and sprinkle with sugar for a touch of sweetness, according to your taste. This classic combination of ketchup and sugar is the secret to achieving that beloved street-toast flavor and pairs wonderfully with the cabbage.
Step 9
Slice the finished cabbage toast into your desired shape, such as squares or triangles. Enjoy your delicious creation! ^^ This cabbage toast is a perfect weekend brunch option, offering both nutrition and fantastic flavor. It pairs wonderfully with a glass of milk for a filling meal or with coffee for a delightful treat. Cabbage is a versatile ingredient, great for main meals and wonderful as a snack.
