Instructions
- Remove any damaged outer leaves from the cabbage, cut it into quarters, cut out the tough core, then finely slice the leaves.
- Peel and thinly slice the onion.
- Heat the oil in a large frying pan or sauté pan over medium heat, then fry the onion for 3 minutes until translucent.
- Add the cabbage and toss well. Cover and cook for 8 to 10 minutes over low heat, stirring now and then, until the cabbage is tender but still slightly crisp.
- Uncover, season with salt and pepper, stir for 2 more minutes to cook off the remaining liquid, then serve hot.
Variations and tips
Spicy version. Add a pinch of Espelette pepper with the onion for a gentle touch of heat.
With carrot. Grate a carrot and add it with the cabbage for more sweetness and colour.
