Simple Cabbage With Zucchini

It is summer and very hot and even I don't feel like cooking. But if I don't get something green to eat everyday, I start to fade. Thank goodness, I like almost all things green.


This is a very easy to prepare side dish. Takes a few minutes and it is so good for you.


BT's Simple Cabbage With Zucchini


Ingredients:

1 small head green cabbage

2 medium zucchini - any variety

2 cloves garlic crushed

1 red chili - veins and seeds removed

1 teaspoon oregano

2 tablespoon fruity olive oil

1/4 teaspoon kosher salt

ground black pepper

1/8 teaspoon ground green cardamom (optional)


Directions:

Quarter cabbage and place in ice water for half an hour to remove debris

Remove and let drain thoroughly

Rough chop cabbage and reserve

Add olive oil to frying pan and turn flame to medium low

Chop chili into rings

Slice zucchini into rounds

When oil begins to sizzle layer the zucchini slice on bottom of pan

Leave 2 to 3 minutes to get a good char on the underside

Using a fork turn zucchini over, slice by slice

Add garlic and chili

Leave 1 minute

Add oregano and salt and cabbage

Using a spatula bring zucchini slices up from the bottom and rest the on the top of the cabbage letting the cabbage caramelize

Add 3-4 grinds of black pepper

Reduce the flame to low and cover pan

Simmer for 3-4 minutes or until cabbage is tender but not soft

Sprinkle with cardamom before (if using) serving


Enjoy! !בתיאבון
