CABBAGE FRIED RICE (2 servings)
Ingredients:
- 5 oz (150g) green cabbage, about 2 cups
- 3 cloves garlic
- 2 green onions
- 5 oz (150g) boneless, skinless chicken breast (or bacon, pork, beef, etc.)
- 1 tbsp neutral-tasting oil
- 2 cups (420g) cooked rice, preferably day-old
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp oyster sauce
- 1/2 tbsp toasted sesame oil
- 2 fried eggs (optional), to serve
- Generous pinch of toasted sesame seeds, to garnish
Marinade:
- 1 tsp soy sauce
- Black pepper, to taste
Instructions:
1. Thinly slice the cabbage and garlic. Thinly slice the green onions, separating the whites and greens.
2. Cut the chicken breast into nice, little cubes. Transfer to a mixing bowl. Season with 1 teaspoon soy sauce and black pepper to taste. Toss together.
3. In a wok (or pan), heat the oil over medium-high heat. Once it gets nice and hot, add the chicken, garlic, and white parts of the green onions. Cook for 2 minutes or until the chicken is nicely browned. Add the cabbage and give it a good stir for another 2 minutes or until the cabbage is slightly wilted.

4. Increase the heat to high. Add the rice along with 1 tablespoon soy sauce and 1 tablespoon oyster sauce. Stir-fry them all together for 2 minutes or until every single grain is nicely coated.

5. Turn the heat off. Add the sesame oil and give it a final mix. Divide the rice into serving bowls. Top with some fried eggs, green onions, and sesame seeds. Enjoy!
