Ingredients
-
Cabbage: 1 cup lightly packed, finely shredded
-
Eggs: 2 large, lightly beaten
-
Garlic: 1 clove, minced
-
Fats: 1 tbsp butter or olive oil (or a mix of both)
-
Seasoning: Salt and pepper to taste
-
Optional: A pinch of red chili flakes for heat.
Step-by-Step Instructions
-
Sauté the Cabbage: Heat the butter or olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the shredded cabbage and minced garlic. Sauté for about 2–3 minutes until the cabbage is slightly softened but still has a little bit of texture.
-
Season the Eggs: While the cabbage is cooking, whisk your eggs in a small bowl with the salt and pepper.
-
Combine in the Pan: Spread the sautéed cabbage evenly across the bottom of the pan. Pour the beaten eggs directly over the cabbage.
-
Form the Patties: You can either cook this as one large omelet and fold it, or use a spatula to divide the mixture into 3–4 smaller “patties” right in the pan as the egg starts to set.
-
Flip and Brown: Cook for about 2 minutes until the bottom is golden brown. Flip carefully and cook for another 1–2 minutes until the eggs are fully set and the edges are crispy.
-
Serve: Enjoy these hot! They are incredibly filling and perfect for someone who hasn’t eaten sugar in a year.
