This is an excellent side dish that you can easily make into a vegetarian main dish by adding cubes of firm tofu and serving it over rice. If you like a milder stir-fry, reduce the number of chilies and remove them before serving.
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- 4 dried whole chilies
- 3 cloves of garlic, minced
- 2 green onions, chopped
- 1 tbsp minced gingerroot
- 6 cups green cabbage, thickly shredded (about half head)

- 2 tbsp oyster sauce
- 1 tsp granulated sugar
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds
Preparation
In wok or large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat; stir-fry chilies, garlic, onions and ginger until fragrant, about 10 seconds. Add cabbage, carrot, red pepper and 1/2 cup (125 mL) water; toss to combine. Cover and steam until vegetables are tender-crisp, about 3 minutes. Add oyster sauce, sugar, sesame oil and salt ; toss to coat. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.
