Cabbage and Zucchini: The Meat-Free Marvel

Who says meat is the star of the show? This simple yet incredibly flavorful recipe proves that vegetables can steal the spotlight. With a combination of crunchy cabbage and tender zucchini, this dish is not only delicious but also packed with nutrients.

Ingredients:

  • 300g zucchini, grated into small strips
  • 250g cabbage, finely chopped
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt (for marinating)
  • 20g of finely chopped green onion
  • 1/6 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/5 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper (you’ve listed this twice)
  • Your favorite cooking oil (olive oil, vegetable oil, etc.)

Instructions:

  1. Prep your veggies: In a large bowl, combine the grated zucchini and finely chopped cabbage. Sprinkle with salt and let it sit for about 10 minutes to draw out excess water. Squeeze out the excess liquid before proceeding.
  2. Create the flavor base: In a small bowl, combine green onion, black pepper, and garlic powder.
  3. Combine: Add the flavor mixture to the zucchini and cabbage. Stir well to ensure even distribution of flavors.
  4. Cook: Heat a large skillet or wok over medium heat with a drizzle of your preferred cooking oil. Add the cabbage and zucchini mixture and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender-crisp and slightly browned. This should take about 10-15 minutes.
  5. Serve: Enjoy your delicious and healthy cabbage and zucchini dish as a main course, side dish, or a filling salad.

Tips:

  • For extra flavor, you can add other seasonings like soy sauce, sesame oil, or red pepper flakes.
  • Serve with a squeeze of lime or lemon for a bright and refreshing taste.
  • This dish pairs well with tofu, tempeh, or beans for a more substantial meal.
