Ingredients:
- 1/2 medium head (450g) green cabbage, thinly shredded
- 2 medium (340g) Yukon Gold potatoes, julienned into matchsticks
- 1 medium (110g) yellow onion, thinly sliced
- 3 cloves (9g) garlic, minced
- 1 tsp (5g) fresh ginger, grated
- 2 tbsp (30ml) neutral oil
- 2 tbsp (30ml) soy sauce
- 1/2 tsp (2g) black pepper
- 1 tsp (5g) sugar
- 1 tbsp (15ml) rice vinegar
Instructions:
- Prepare the produce. Wash and peel the potatoes, slicing them into thin matchsticks. Shred the cabbage into thin ribbons and slice the onion into half moons. Note: Keep the cut potatoes in a bowl of cold water if you aren't cooking them immediately to prevent browning.
- Heat the oil. Pour 2 tbsp oil into your wok or skillet over medium high heat until it starts shimmering.
- Sear the potatoes. Add the potato matchsticks in a single layer and fry without stirring for 3 minutes, then toss and cook for another 3-5 minutes until edges are mahogany colored.
- Sauté the onions. Stir in the sliced onions and cook for 2-3 minutes until they become translucent.
- Wilt the greens. Add the shredded cabbage, garlic, and ginger. Toss frequently for 5-7 minutes until the cabbage softens and turns translucent green.
- Mix the glaze. In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sugar, and black pepper.
- Reduce the sauce. Drizzle the mixture over the vegetables. Stir fry on high heat for 2-3 minutes until the sauce reduces and coats everything in a glossy sheen.
- Finish. Remove from heat immediately to prevent the cabbage from overcooking.
