Steps for Preparing Pan-Fried White Cabbage

Prepare the pan-fried cabbage with carrots and soy sauce by first cleaning all the vegetables needed for this side dish: peel the onion and garlic cloves and chop them. Clean the cabbage by removing the stem part and the more damaged outer leaves, and slice it thinly.
Scrape the carrots and cut them in half and then into sticks.
Pour the vegetable oil into a rather large pan and add the onions, garlic, and ginger.
Sauté for a few minutes, then add the cabbage and carrots.
Cook over high heat for about ten minutes, adding water if necessary.
Season with salt and, if you like, with curry or turmeric, and finally add the soy sauce.
The stir-fried cabbage is ready, ideal as a side dish for many main courses or to accompany rice or noodles.
