Curried Cabbage Stir Fry


Another vegetable stir fry recipe using cabbage, spices and ginger, and almonds! I chose to add in celery, sweet corn and green pepper. I did plan to use peas until I discovered we had none! Red peppers can be used to give the dish some extra colour and natural sweetness.

The chopped almonds are a great source of fat. Tofu can be added for additional protein if desired. The more ingredients added to this dish, the more spices you'll need. The next time I make this dish, I'm tempted to add 1/2 tablespoon instead of a teaspoon of curry powder, cumin and mustard. I love garlic and ginger so may throw a bit more into the wok. The recipe below makes approx. three servings (relative to the nutritional information). However, add more vegetables, chicken or tofu to serve four, or serve between two for hungry appetites!

The cabbage reduces down when cooking so a large wok is required.
