OKAY, those look and sound FABULOUS! Can't wait to make them next week!0 -
Thanks guys for all the comments on the recipe I posted!!! They are our favs!!! Next week we are going to try the cabbage rolls with some ragu and see how that tastes. mmmmm0

Had sautéed cabbage tonight! But that's nothing to post about here... Perhaps I'll post my warm cabbage, roasted squash and black bean salad recipe. I'm not sure I'll have time to make anything new before Sat :frown: I've really been slacking on these challenges!0
-
Don't know if this counts as a "recipe", but I gotta tell you - when I know I'm in for an evening of "wanting to eat everything in sight"... I make this and pig out on it! Only when I'm staying home of course, 'cause I can eat a huge plate of yummy cabbage which, well, you know, can make you a little "musical"... Ha ha ha!
Anyway, here's what I do - guess I'd call it Super Easy Oven Roasted Cabbage:
Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
Take 1 head of cabbage, wash the outside. DO NOT CORE. Slice in half, then slice each half into 4 wedges, so you have 8 wedges total.
Place wedges on a cooking tray, drizzle with olive oil. Personally, I don't add salt to anything, and I don't like the taste of pepper, so I leave it with just olive oil. However, you can "salt and pepper to taste" at this point if you want.
If I have them, I also will "wedge" some purple onion, and cut some red/yellow/orange bell peppers into big chunks, and put those on the tray as well, drizzled with a bit of the olive oil as well.
Place tray in oven for 12-15 minutes. Remove from oven, flip the cabbage wedges and stir onions/peppers as needed, then return to the oven for another 8-10 mins.
Remove from oven and let sit for a couple minutes. Then cut out the core parts as needed - when I do this, some of the core parts actually are soft enough to eat, I just cut out the parts that I can't eat. I then stir the whole mix together - cabbage, onions, peppers - and go to town!
Sorry I don't have any pics but will try to post some next time I make this - maybe tonight!

I make a cabbage,chicken and vegetable soup regularly. It's filling and so nutritious! Here's the link! Please enjoy!
http://recipes.sparkpeople.com/recipe-detail.asp?recipe=1398594
EDIT: I have since started reducing the amount of chicken broth to reduce the sodium. Half water and half broth still tastes wonderfully just use more poultry seasoning per your tastes.0 -
My this sounds good never thought of using enchalota sauce.0

I just put my "recipe" for Easy Oven Roasted Cabbage into my MFP "recipes"...
I put that it serves 4 - those would be VERY GENEROUS servings.
I figured 1 TBSP of Olive Oil - could cut this down if you wanted.
But with those figures, it's 186 cal per serving, 744 cals for the whole thing.0 -
OK - I give up! No time to make a new recipe this week. I made and posted this recipe mid-Feb in the recipe section and I'll share it here with you. Inspired by http://ohsheglows.com/2011/01/30/carrot-cake-smoothie-warm-sweet-potato-n-black-bean-salad/
Warm Cabbage, Roasted Squash and Black Bean Salad
Makes 5-6 large sides.
1/2 cup dry black beans
Enough water to cover
1/2 buttercup squash (approx 570grams), cleaned, cubed with peel removed
1 large red onion, slice into 1/4 inch half moons
1 large red bell pepper, chopped
salt and pepper
1/4 large cabbage, chopped into 1/2 inch squares
Dressing:
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 jalapeno pepper, minced
2 Tbsp olive oil
3-4 Tbsp real lime juice
1/2 tsp ground cumin
Optional: 1/2 cup cilantro, chopped (I didn't have any but it would be so good!)
** I omitted all the cooking oil and substituted it with cooking spray, since the dressing already contains 2 Tbsp of oil. Feel free to add it back if you prefer. I also use dried black beans but you could use approx 1 1/4 cup of canned beans instead, just rinse them thoroughly and account for the added sodium used in processing.
Ahead of time:
In a medium sized bowl, cover black beans with water and soak overnight. In the morning, rinse beans thoroughly, cover with about 2 inches of water and boil gently with a tilted lid until tender, 30-60mins. Allow to cool in cooking water and then drain and store in the fridge until you are ready to make the salad.
Preheat oven to 400F.
Spray a baking sheet lightly with cooking spray, and arrange cubed squash, red onion and red pepper on the baking sheet (I mixed them together for more even cooking). Spray vegetables lightly with cooking spray (or oil) and season with salt and pepper. Bake for 15 mins, turn gently, and bake an additional 15 mins until squash is tender and all vegetables appears roasted.
While roasting, whisk together dressing ingredients in a large bowl. Fold in cooked black beans and set aside.
Heat a large skillet to medium, spray lightly with cooking spray or oil, and add cabbage. Stir fry for 7-10 mins, stirring every few mins, until cabbage has softened and is slightly caramelized. Remove from heat but keep warm.
Once the vegetables are roasted, add the cabbage to the bean and dressing mixture and fold to combine. Then add the roasted veggies and fold gently (the squash will be rather soft and break apart if mixed too thoroughly). Serve immediately while everything is still warm.

This is my absolute FAVORITE food ever. It's a Filipino dish called "Sinigang na Bangus," which is a sour broth with milkfish and vegetables. It's definitely an unusual dish, but sooo good and low cal.
Below is a modified recipe of the "Sinigang na Bangus" (Sinigang with Milkfish) recipe in Filipino Cooking Here and Abroad to instead include catfish or shrimp.
1-1/2 lbs. catfish fillets OR shelled shrimp
2-1/2 cups water
4-5 medium Roma tomatoes, cut into eighths
1 medium onion
3-4 tbsp. lemon juice
2-3 tbsp. patis
salt for fish
1 lb. green beans, cut into 2-3 in. lengths OR CABBAGE
6 oz. spinach leaves (or more if you like), roughly chopped
2-4 baby bok choy, chopped - separate stems and leaves (optional but yummy)
Cut fillets into serving or half-serving sized pieces, depending on your inclination. Salt them.
1) Put water, tomatoes and onions in a pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium and cook till vegetables are getting tender (maybe 5-7 mins).
2) Add green beans (or blanch them first and reserve till you add the fish - I've never been fancy enough for that option) and baby bok choy stems, bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook for 4-7 minutes more, till beans are softened but not quite done.
3) Add lemon juice and patis. Correct seasonings.
4) Add fish. Bring to a boil, then lower heat and simmer for 3-5 minutes or until fish is opaque.
5) Remove from heat, add spinach and baby bok choy leaves. Cover and let stand for 2-3 minutes. Serve with patis and lemon to pass around.
It's really not too complicated, and it's really great on rice or by itself. Enjoy! 0 -
Sautéed Shredded cabbage
Ingredients
Serves 1
Cabbage - Savoy, raw, 3 cup, shredded (sounds a lot but will wilt down)
Onions - Raw, 1/2
All Purpose Seasoning (Salt Free), 1/2 tsp
Mushrooms - Raw, 4 medium sliced
Butter - 1/2 tbsp
Total: 156 cals
23g carbs
9g fibre
7g protein
6g fat (from butter)
I use this as a bed to my protein, fab with fish, chicken or steak
Can add bacon to make a meal of it without added any of above mentioned.
With 2 rashers of chopped smoked back bacon takes cals to 276 carbs 23 fibre 9 protein 15 and fat 16, but to be fair can omit the butter as bacon will give juices to sauté cabbage with. Without butter will reduce fat to 10g
275cals for a whole meal woop woop
start with onions and butter or onions and bacon depending on which you follow. sauté till onions translucent, add sliced mushrooms cook a few minutes then add cabbage cook till wilted sprinkle with all purpose then stir in - ready to serve.

Sri Lankan Cabbage
INGREDIENTS:
1/2 head of cabbage, shredded
3 eggs
2 tablespoons ricebran oil (or any flavorless oil)
2 onions, sliced
2 teaspoons cumin seeds
1 heaped teaspoon tumeric powder.
DIRECTIONS: shred and wash the cabbage and leave to drain in a collander.
Heat the oil in the pan, add the cumin seeds and fry until they 'talk' (start to pop a little).
Add the onion and fry until clear.
Add the cabbage, it still needs to be a bit wet from washing, because the water turns to steam and cooks it. Once it has bedded down add the tumeric and stir it though.
Crack in the eggs and mix through, it doesn't take too long to cook from here.
Add salt to your taste.
CALORIES PER SERVING: 169
HOW MANY IT SERVES: at least 4
OPINIONS ON HOW IT TASTED, ETC:
I love this dish and always request it at home. My boyfriend's Mum is Malaysian, but her family is originaly from Sri Lanka, and we live in New Zealand. Ha! So I'm not sure how authentic this recipe is. My bf made this for me once when we were first going out and I was sick with flu, now I just love it, it's like comfort food for me. And healthy too! We usually eat it with chicken curry or dahl. It is also good to serve when we have friends over for curry night, because it isn't spicey so everyone can eat it.0 -

Do you beat the eggs and then crack them in? I'd love to see a picture of this! I'd like to make it but have no idea how it should turn out...Sri Lankan Cabbage
