Ingredients
- •600 g cabbage, roughly chopped
- •2 garlic cloves, smashed
- •1 tbsp fish sauce
- •1 tbsp neutral oil
- •1 tsp sugar
Directions
- 1Chop the cabbage into rough pieces rather than fine shreds so it can take the heat.
- 2Heat the oil in a wok over the highest heat you have.
- 3Add the smashed garlic and stir thirty seconds until it just colours.
- 4Add the cabbage all at once and toss for three minutes until the edges char.

💡 Rough pieces, not shreds. Shredded cabbage collapses into water before the pan can put any colour on it.
