Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 medium head green cabbage, chopped into bite-sized pieces
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1-inch piece ginger, grated
  • 1 bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 carrot, julienned
  • 1 cup snap peas or snow peas
  • 3 green onions, sliced (whites and greens separated)
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon oyster sauce (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Sesame seeds for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat until shimmering.
  2. Add minced garlic and grated ginger; sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  3. Add the chopped cabbage and stir-fry for 3 to 5 minutes until slightly tender but still crunchy.
  4. Toss in the bell pepper, julienned carrot, and snap peas. Cook for another 3 to 4 minutes.
  5. Stir in the white parts of the green onions, soy sauce, oyster sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil. Mix well to coat the vegetables.
  6. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for 1-2 more minutes to let flavors meld.
  7. Remove from heat, garnish with the green parts of the green onions and sesame seeds, and serve hot.

Notes

  • For extra char, let the cabbage sit undisturbed in the pan for 1 minute without stirring.
  • To make this dish vegan, ensure you use a vegetarian stir-fry sauce instead of oyster sauce.
  • Ensure the wok is very hot before adding ingredients to maintain the 'crispy' texture.
