  • 1 tbsp peanut oil Or any other neutral oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, finely minced

Cooking

  • In a large pan or wok, heat the peanut oil over medium-high heat.

  • Stir in the minced garlic, white parts of the green onions, and sliced cabbage. Cook until the cabbage is tender, about 3-4 minutes.
