Preferably for plain old green cabbage, since I bought half a head on a whim without a plan.

Okonomiyaki, Japanese cabbage pancake
The recipe has some ingredients which might be hard to find if you live outside Japan, but Kenji also explains how to substitute most of them
That looks good! Thanks for the suggestion 🙂

Oh that looks good, thanks for the suggestion!
I’m surprised nobody has suggested Coleslaw, yet. You can go with a mayo or vinegar base, depending on your tastes!
I don’t really like coleslaw. I’ll put up with it on a burger but I wouldn’t choose it. I’d rather sauerkraut of kimchi over coleslaw.
I recently posted my family’s recipe here. it’s fried cabbage with potatoes and sausage, and it’s really great, especially when it’s cold out. Stick to your ribs good.
I’m fairly certain I’ve eaten a variation on that, and it is indeed good!
Oh that does sound good. How long are you cooking it for one you’ve layered everything and it’s got a lid on? Are we talking 20 mins or an hour cooked slower?
Closer to an hour. It all depends on how quickly the potatoes cook.
Sweet thanks.
I have half of a (large) cabbage head and many suggested recipes so I can only try one, but I am going to make a list and plan to try more in the future. Thanks for the suggestion :)
Okonomiyaki, can be made very simply without all the fancy Japanese ingredients. The okonomi sauce and Kewpie mayo are a must however.
Okonomiyaki sounds yum, I think someone else also mentioned it, but I don’t seem to be able to get okonomi sauce that I can find locally. Would a recipe like this suffice? https://www.justonecookbook.com/okonomiyaki-sauce/
I think that would be a close approximation for sure. I’d say the real okonomi sauce is mild, not tangy, so I imagine diluting that recipe with a bit of water maybe 5% would get it close. It is similar in tanginess to the Kewpie mayo, the flavors don’t overpower each other. Now I’m hungry from some lol.
Thanks! I’ll put this on my list to try. I have half a cabbage and what seems like a couple of dozen cabbage recipes so I’m gonna have to come back to many of these.
A nice cabbage soup in a crock pot is always nice, and freezes well. https://www.iheartnaptime.net/cabbage-soup/#recipe
Cabbage, potato, and onion bake. Slice the ingredients, parboil the potatoes, then put alternating layers of onion, potato, and cabbage in a baking dish. Season each layer with salt & pepper. Pour cream over the layers (or chicken stock), then some shredded cheese over the top. Cover with alfoil and bake for about 30 minutes at 180C/350F. Take the foil off for the last 10 minutes to brown the top of the cheese.
You can get away without parboiling the potatoes but you’ll need extra liquid and about 15-20 minutes longer in the oven.
A recipe my family made up, we call cabbage salad. Kinda an Asian inspired coleslaw?
Finley shred your cabbage and put it into a bowl. Long stringy cut is preferred. Add rice vinegar, sesame oil, salt, black pepper. Mix well and serve.
I can’t give you ratios because we wing it when we make it. Lemon juice is also a good addition.
I’m not a big fan of coleslaw, and no one else in my family eats it at all, so probably not our thing. I did come across a recipe similar to this but fried, which seems more up my alley.
Totally fair, but frying would lose the zesty, crisp, and freshnes I love about this recipe.
Good luck in your search. Look like a lot of good replys here with great flavors to try.
Yeah frying would make it quite different.
I have heaps of ideas in this thread, I’m going to need more cabbage!
We have a peas and cabbage (essentially cook both of them in a pan/wok with mild spices, you can add carrots, tomatos or onions to your liking to increase the volume or add more textures), you can prepare dim-sums or momos (refined-flour or rice flour sheets filled with vegetables(usually cabbage, carrots; minced) or some meats, steamed). You can pickle the cabbages, or even make chips out of them (mince fine, then sun/oven/microwave/air-fryer drying to a point where they loose about 40-50% by weight/volume of water, then bake or fry to your preferences in mild spices)
Thanks! The cabbage chips sounds interesting. You say to mince fine, how do they become a chip shape rather than just dry dust?
well, minced may not have been the best word. the size should be close to cross section of smaller confetti. Cabbage has very high water content, and if you dont get them small enough, they would not get crispy.
I’m very curious to try this!
you can also make this with onion, and that is what I have made mostly. You can also store it for a reasonable amount of time if not oil fried, and over here (where i belong) we even have a spice which is essentially this onion chip powder
Ferment it to sauerkraut and then make Polish Bigos.
Super easy recipe I love that you can either cook in the oven or it’s even better on a grill or camp fire: bacon wrapped cabbage.
Cut the cabbage into wedges and coat the sides in a bit of butter, salt and pepper to taste then wrap in 1-2 pieces of bacon depending on length of the pieces. Wrap each wedge in foil and throw in the oven/on the grill/fire until they are soft to the touch. Grilling/camp fire yields a more smoky flavor, oven roasted maintains more moisture.
If doing in the oven, put the pieces in a pan with a lip because the fat and moisture from the cabbage and bacon will leak.
Nice, thanks for the suggestion!
I recently made a cabbage, carrot curry that came out very well. Sorry, I don’t have a recipe, but just used some curry paste and yogurt and it was yummy.
Recently started making this with much applause from a young kid.

I’ve been meaning to try this one.
Ah southern fried cabbage is nice, it’s worth trying!
- I recently discovered it can be used in noodles in place of Bok choy and the likes. Works pretty well.
- Standard issue cabbage and carrots salad - dill, lemon, olive oil
- Cabbage stew
- cut the cabbage in strips
- sautee an onion, carrots
- add in cabbage, seasoning, and cook for a while
- optionally add chopped tomatoes toward the end
