Stir-fried Cabbage and Cashews

Serves: 4

Notes

A great way of preparing spicy and nutty cabbage to serve as a side dish or as a stand-alone vegetarian meal. Works well topped with seared salmon.

Ingredients

  • ½ cabbage
  • 1 cup of cashew nuts (about 100g)
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1 Tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 Tbsp oyster sauce
  • 1 tsp chilli sauce (optional)
  • Salt and pepper

Method

Shred cabbage. Put a large wok or frying pan over high heat. When hot, pour in the two oils. Stir fry cabbage until softening but still crisp (about two minutes). Toss in cashews and keep stirring (about 1 minute). Stir in oyster and chilli sauce. Season with salt and pepper.

Note: May be made with bacon. Fry a few strips of lean bacon before adding other ingredients.

    Ratatatouille

    Summer means the joy of cooking simply with vegetables when they’re at their best. This recipe mixes colourful combinations of eggplant, zucchini, capsicums and tomatoes along with red cabbage and onions and herbs to make a delightful dish which may be served hot or cold. I call it RATATATOUILLE since it is based on the classic French ratatouille but has a little more going for it, a little more “tatat”.
