– 1 pound pork sausage (or your choice of sausage)
– 4 cups chopped cabbage
– 1 medium onion, sliced
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 2 tablespoons soy sauce
– 1 teaspoon sesame oil
– Salt and pepper to taste
– 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
– 2 tablespoons vegetable oil (for cooking)
– Chopped green onions (for garnish)
Creating Sausage and Cabbage Stir Fry is straightforward if you follow these steps:
1. Prepare the Ingredients: Chop the cabbage, slice the onion, and mince the garlic. Set aside.
2. Cook the Sausage: In a large skillet or wok, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the sausage, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon. Cook until browned, about 5–7 minutes.
3. Add Onions and Garlic: When the sausage is nearly cooked through, add the sliced onion and minced garlic. Sauté for another 2–3 minutes until the onion is translucent.
4. Stir in the Cabbage: Increase the heat to medium-high and add the chopped cabbage. Stir well to combine and cook until the cabbage wilts, about 5 minutes.
5. Season the Dish: Pour in the soy sauce and sesame oil. Add salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes if you like some heat. Stir everything together for another 2 minutes to ensure even flavor distribution.
6. Serve Hot: Once the cabbage is tender but still has some crunch, remove the skillet from the heat.
7. Garnish: Serve the stir fry hot, garnished with chopped green onions for a fresh touch.
Following these steps will yield a hearty dish bursting with flavor and texture!
