Well this isn’t exactly a sexy post now is it? I mean cabbage, it makes me think of every novel I’ve ever read set in a time of famine where cabbage soup was the go to food. And there’s probably good reason for that, not least because one cabbage goes a long way. And that is precisely why I’ve chosen it for today’s post. Because there’s very rarely one recipe that will use up an entire cabbage. It just keeps going and going.

The following are 7 of my favourite ways to use a cabbage. I’ve not been particluar about the type of cabbage, there’s a couple for red cabbage, a couple for green or savoy and even wombok. I with held from including brussel sprouts in this list as I feel like that’s it’s own little 7 Ways With post.

If there’s a particular ingredient you want me to include in a future post then let me know and I can highlight that. Next week I’ll do something that isn’t a vegetable (shock, horror) but for now let’s have a lil look at cabbage.

Chicken and Cabbage Fragrant Fried Rice My favourite fried rice, the seasoning is light and let’s the toasted rice flavour shine trough.

Pork and Vegetable Dumplings with a sweet and spicy sauce, cabbage is the perfect thing to add to your dumpling mix as it keeps them juicy and adds depth of flavour.
