Hi, Saundra--
I found a recipe awhile back that is supposed to be a variation on kimchee,
however, it's not pickled, but semi-stirfried. Because the recipe was rather
bland, I made a few adjustments. I'm a "to-taste" cook, so please understand
that I don't use measurements for this recipe!
You use about 2 tablespoons of oil, canola, veg, whatever your preference,
although probably not olive since that would change the flavor. Add ginger
root, to taste. If you like ginger, add quite a bit since it's a *very* nice
combination with the cabbage. Next add pepper of choice: serranos or thais
are particularly nice. In a pinch, I've use a ton of red pepper flakes, which
you may want to add in addition anyway (I do, mainly because they tend to
coat the cabbage, which neither of the fresh peppers do). Then add a half-cup
to a cup of chicken broth depending on the amount of cabbage you''ve used and
cook until the cabbage is to your preference. I like mine still crunchy.
I have used this dish with stir-fried beef that's been cooked with hot
peppers, soy, and hoisin and served both on rice.
Hope you enjoy!
Regards, Cathy
