Ingredients
- 1 medium head green cabbage
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 3 large, sliced garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 2 sliced green onions
- 0.5 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 0.5 teaspoon salt

Directions
Step 1
Remove any damaged outer leaves from the cabbage, cut it in half, and remove the core. Thinly slice the cabbage into long shreds.
Step 2
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking.
Step 3
Add the sliced garlic to the skillet and stir-fry for about 30 seconds until fragrant but not browned.
Step 4
Increase the heat to high and add the sliced cabbage to the skillet. Toss it quickly to coat well with oil and garlic.
Step 5
Pour in the soy sauce and continue stir-frying for about 5 minutes, or until the cabbage begins to soften but still retains some crunchiness.
Step 6
Add the sesame oil, sliced green onions, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine all the flavors.
Step 7
Cook for an additional 2 minutes, then taste and adjust the seasonings if needed.
Step 8
Remove from heat and serve immediately as a side dish to accompany your favorite main course.
