STIR FRY CHINESE CABBAGE [包菜]

Cooking up a yummy vegetable dish just with Chinese cabbage. A simple yet delicious a quick stir fry vegetable where the cabbage leaves are cooked yet maintains the crispy, crunchy texture. 

Seasoned with some vinegar and sugar, this dish is appetisingly good to go with rice.  Do not add water as the cabbage will release some liquid when fried. Tastes sourish sweet with a bit of spiciness from the dried chillies.
