Vegan Green Cabbage and Pepper Stir Fry

Green Cabbage? It’s good for you but can easily go limp when boiled or steamed. This quick 5-minute recipe transforms it into something that shakes your taste buds into another world.

This vegan-friendly green cabbage and pepper stir fry has plenty of kick – the spices will heat you up inside while it’s snowing outside. I love how the video uses a picture-in-picture effect to show each step in the cooking process.

One warning: If you’re shy about spices, you may want to halve the amount of cumin the chef recommends. Enjoy!

See the ingredient list and instructions below.

PS The chef shows this served in a sandwich (a different twist) and of course, this can be served as a side dish.

The chef in this video uses a stir fry pan that I really like – it’s similar to the Cuisinart stir fry pan that I use at home. If you’re interested in buying one, this model is attractive, inexpensive and very durable.
