Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Can substitute balsamic vinegar for black vinegar.

    Very flavourful and a nice touch of heat. Let the cabbage char and gain natural sweetness.

    The black vinegar perfectly complements the Napa cabbage, this is so easy, and perfect alongside a richer dish — I served it with red-braised pork belly.

    Just a touch of heat. Quick and delicious side dish

    Really simple and delicious. Will make again. Definitely worth doing in an actual wok for the high heat.

    Made this with plain old green cabbage and it was delicious -- cabbage really seems to benefit from a stir-fry preparation. Super simple to put together.
