Stir-fried cabbage with glass noodles is a quick, delicious, and nutritious dish loved for its crispy texture and savory flavor. Here’s a simple step-by-step guide to recreate it at home.

Ingredients:

- 1/2 medium cabbage, sliced thinly

- 100g dry glass noodles, soaked in warm water until soft

- 2 cloves garlic, minced

Steps:

1. Prep the ingredients: Soak glass noodles in warm water for 10 minutes until soft, then drain. Slice cabbage into thin strips; mince garlic.

2. Cook the noodles: Boil the soaked noodles for 1-2 minutes, then rinse under cold water to prevent sticking. Set aside.

3. Stir-fry: Heat oil in a wok over medium-high heat. Sauté garlic until fragrant, then add cabbage and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until slightly wilted.

5. Finish: Drizzle with sesame oil, sprinkle pepper, and give a final stir. Serve hot, garnished with chopped green onions if desired.
