    Fried Cabbage with Wieners

    Okay, okay… so the title of this recipe may not sound too appetizing, but I assure you that this is a quick, tasty and affordable meal. My mom used to cook this for my siblings and I every once in a while and I just loved how the simple flavours worked together and satisfied my appetite!

    Ingredients:

    1 small head of cabbage (shredded or thinly sliced)
    1 red onion (thinly sliced)
    4 beef/chicken/veggie weiners (sliced)
    4 strips of bacon (sliced into small strips)
    2 cloves of garlic (minced)
    1 cup vegetable stock or water
    1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
    1 tsp caraway seeds
    1 tsp of pepper
    1/2 tsp salt (optional)

    Directions:

    1. Heat a wok or large frying pan on medium-low heat. Add sliced bacon and fry for 2 minutes until lightly browned.
    2. Add onion and continue to cook until onions soften (about 4-5 minutes).
    3. Stir in garlic, red pepper flakes, pepper and caraway seeds and cook for an additional 2 minutes.
    4. Add in cabbage and sliced wieners, then slowly pour in vegetable stock.
    5. Cover and simmer on low heat for about 15-20 minutes (or until cabbage is wilted and no longer crunchy), stirring occasionally.
    6. Serve cabbage with basmati rice.
