Cabbage With Tomatoes, Bulgur and Chickpeas image

This recipe is based on a Greek dish made with red cabbage. I've used both green and red cabbage, and I like it both ways. It's a comforting vegan dish that works as an entree or a side.

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 50m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons oil
3 onions, chopped
1 lb ground beef
1 cabbage, thinly sliced
28 ounces tomatoes (I used diced or crushed)
19 ounces tomato juice
1 teaspoon soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon oregano
1/2 teaspoon basil
1/2 teaspoon italian seasoning
3 drops hot sauce (tabasco)
pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a large saucepan.
  • Cook onions 5 minutes, at medium heat, until lightly golden.
  • Add ground beef and keep cooking 8 to 10 minutes, while breaking it with a fork, until no more pink.
  • Add cabbage and keep cooking 4 to 5 minutes.
  • Add tomatoes, tomato juice, soy sauce, oregano, basil, italian seasoning and tabasco. Add pepper to taste.
  • Keep cooking 10 minutes, stirring from time to time, until the cabbage is cooked. (I let mine cook maybe 30 minutes, maybe it all depends on the size of the cabbage).

Tips:

  • Choosing the Right Cabbage: Select firm, compact cabbages with tightly packed leaves. Avoid heads with signs of wilting, bruising, or insect damage.
  • Preparing Cabbage: Remove any damaged or discolored outer leaves. Cut the cabbage into quarters or wedges, then remove the core. Slice or shred the cabbage as desired for your recipe.
  • Cooking Cabbage: Cabbage can be cooked using various methods, including boiling, steaming, roasting, sautéing, or stir-frying. The cooking time may vary depending on the method and the desired texture.
  • Adding Flavor: Enhance the taste of cabbage dishes by incorporating herbs, spices, sauces, or seasonings. Garlic, onions, ginger, soy sauce, and vinegar are commonly used flavorings.
  • Serving Suggestions: Cabbage dishes can be served as a main course, side dish, or salad. They pair well with meats, poultry, fish, or tofu. Cabbage can also be used as a filling for tacos, wraps, or dumplings.
