Steps
Clean the savoy cabbage by removing the leaves, wash them, and cut them into thin strips. To achieve this, roll up the leaf and cut finely, removing the central rib, which is hard. In a pot, heat the four tablespoons of oil, add the savoy cabbage, add the hot water, cover, and cook for thirty minutes. Then drizzle with the soy sauce and add the spices to taste: I chose ground ginger. Adjust the salt but taste first because the soy sauce is already flavorful. Mix well, let cook for another five minutes, and then serve the side dish hot.
