This is my go-to fiber kick to balance my body after I've had too much animal based fatty foods. I immediately feel healthier and cleaner after eating a big plate of simiple stir-fried veggies. A nice salad can also to the same thing, but during the colder winter months, a cold raw salad doesn't seem as appetizing as a big hot plate of veggies. Here's another tip about Chinese food, you will rarely see "salad" on a Chinese dinner table for any meal. We eat a lot of vegetables and its almost always cooked.
The following dish is healthy, easy, cheap, and you can pretty much use any other veggies you want to add in with the shredded cabbage.
Ingredients:
1/2-1 Head of Cabbage julienned* If you don't feel like practicing those knife skills, shredded will work just as well :)
1 Carrot julienned
1 Cup of julienned Snow Peas
Salt and Cooking Oil
Instructions:
Heat about a tablespoon of cooking oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat.
Put carrots in the pan and cook for a couple minutes then add the snow peas. Add a pinch of salt and toss then cook for a couple minutes.
Add the cabbage and sprinkle in about a teaspoon of salt then carefully toss and let cook down for about 5-8 minutes, tossing occassionally.
Once all the veggies are softened yet still has a little snap, your done! Plate up and enjoy :)
