Whether you’re looking for a quick breakfast, a light lunch, or a simple dinner, this recipe is versatile enough to fit any meal. It’s also a great way to use up any leftover cabbage you might have, reducing food waste and making the most of your groceries.
One of the best things about cabbage with eggs is how adaptable it is. You can serve it as a standalone dish or pair it with a variety of sides to create a more substantial meal. Consider serving it with a slice of toasted whole-grain bread, which adds a crunchy texture and complements the softness of the eggs and cabbage.
For an extra burst of flavor, a dollop of your favorite hot sauce or a sprinkle of fresh herbs like parsley or chives can elevate the dish. If you’re looking for a heartier option, pairing it with a side of roasted potatoes or a fresh salad can make for a balanced and satisfying meal. No matter how you choose to enjoy it, cabbage with eggs is sure to become a favorite in your culinary repertoire.
INGREDIENTS:
1 Tbsp butter or olive oil I like a combination of the two
1 garlic clove minced
1 cup lightly packed cabbage finely shredded
2 eggs lightly beaten
salt and pepper to taste
INSTRUCTIONS:
Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat.
Add in the butter and/or oil and spread it in the pan.
Add in the garlic and let it become fragrant for 20 seconds or so.
Add in the cabbage and cook, stirring frequently, until it softens, about 3-5 minutes. I like to cook mine until it is beginning to caramelize, which can take a minute or two longer.
Spread the cabbage out in a thin layer.
Pour in the eggs, tilting the pan a bit to spread them out.
Let the eggs cook for about 15-20 seconds and then fold them over gently until they are cooked through.
Remove from heat and serve immediately!
Enjoy!
