What each ingredient does
- Cabbage
- Softens as it cooks and browns at the edges, giving sweetness and a savory flavor.
- Cooking oil
- Conducts heat evenly and keeps the cabbage from sticking while it browns.
The step that matters
Place cabbage in pan and fry until tender and brown. Cabbage needs enough heat and room in the pan to brown rather than steam. Crowding it or cooking on low heat releases moisture and leaves it pale and soggy.
