Napa Cabbage Recipe

• 2 garlic cloves
• 1 teaspoon ginger, minced
• 1 napa cabbage, medium
• 9 oz mushrooms, champignon, sliced
• ½ teaspoon red chili flakes (optional)
• 2 tablespoon soy sauce, gluten-free or sub with coconut aminos
• 2 teaspoon olive oil
• 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil
• 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
• cilantro for garnish
• Add salt if needed
• ½-1 teaspoon sugar (Optional)

How to cook Napa Cabbage

Slice off the stem end of the cabbage head so that you have a sturdy base. And cut it into thin strips (about 1 inch). Set aside.

Heat olive oil in the pan (regular pan is fine, no need for a wok) over medium heat and add mushrooms, cook until they’re brown (5-7 min).

Add ginger, garlic, and cook for 2-3 minutes.

Add in the cabbage, soy sauce, vinegar, stir to combine. Simmer for 5-7 minutes constantly stirring.

When ready, drizzle with sesame oil, sprinkle sesame seeds, and garnish with chopped cilantro and chili flakes. Your Napa cabbage and mushrooms stir fry is ready to serve!

Notes

• For serving, you can drizzle the cabbage with garlic chili sauce and ad plenty of green onions. Delicious!

• If gluten-free soy sauce not very salty, you can add salt to taste if needed. Same with sugar.

• Instead of mushrooms, you can also use chickpeas, following the same cooking method.

• You can serve this napa cabbage with a little drizzle of Thai peanut sauce.
