Steps to Make Crispy Fried Cabbage

Step 1: Prepare the Ingredients

Wash the cabbage thoroughly, separate the leaves, and cut into bite-sized pieces (about 1.5-2 inches or 4-5 cm). Then, soak the cabbage in lightly salted water for about 5 minutes, then drain well.

Wash the green onions and chop finely.

Step 2: Marinate the Cabbage

Place the drained cabbage in a large bowl. Add 1 teaspoon of salt, 1 teaspoon of seasoning powder, and ½ teaspoon of ground pepper. Mix well. Let the cabbage marinate for about 10-15 minutes to absorb the flavors.

Step 3: Prepare the Batter

In another bowl, crack 2 eggs and beat them lightly. Add the all-purpose flour and crispy fry mix to the bowl. Stir well to form a smooth, thick batter.

Step 4: Fry the Cabbage

Heat a generous amount of cooking oil in a non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Dip each marinated cabbage piece into the batter, ensuring it’s evenly coated.

Once the oil is hot (test with a small drop of batter – it should sizzle immediately), carefully place the battered cabbage pieces into the pan. Do not overcrowd the pan. Fry in batches if necessary. Fry, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy on all sides. When the cabbage is golden and crisp, remove it from the pan and place it on paper towels to drain excess oil.
