Taiwanese cabbage is sweeter and more tender than normal white cabbage and cooks very quickly. It's the perfect side dish for so many entrees, and not just Asian.

Heat the oil in a wok or a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add garlic and ginger and cook for about 30 seconds. Add cabbage and chile pepper. Stir quickly, mixing in garlic and ginger.

Cook's Note:

If Taiwanese cabbage (also known as flat cabbage) is not available in your area, you may substitute either savoy or napa cabbage with good results, although the texture will be slightly different.

Really easy and fast, fast, fast! I used Napa cabbage sliced in 1/3 inch rounds, quartered, and dried red pepper (I put half of the pepper in the vinegar to reconstitute; added great flavor!). It took 5 minutes of stir-frying at medium high for the right texture (tender but still firm). Great recipe for a super fast meal. I added cooked chicken at the end and it was a great main dish.

This really needs sesame oil in order to add the Asian flavor that is missing. Also, add Asian dried ground pork for a real treat. It comes in convenient jars or packages on the shelf. Just sprinkle it on top while cooking. Instead of chopping a red pepper, try hot sesame oil instead of regular.
