Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 6

300g pack small shallots
2 tbsp olive oil
2 large garlic cloves , sliced
1 tsp fennel seeds , lightly crushed
1 Savoy cabbage (outer leaves discarded) quartered, cored and shredded
150ml hot vegetable stock

Steps:

  • Boil the shallots in their skins for 10-15 mins until they are soft but still hold their shape. Leave to cool then slip the skins from the shallots and halve them. Can be prepared a couple of days in advance, then chilled.
  • Heat the oil in a large non-stick wok, and stir-fry the garlic, fennel seeds and shallots for a couple of mins until the shallots are golden. Remove from the pan.
  • Add the cabbage to the pan and stir-fry until it starts to wilt a little, then pour in the stock, cover the wok and cook for 3 mins until just tender. Test to see if the cabbage is done to your liking; if not, cook a little longer, then add the shallot mixture, heat through and serve.
