Description

Looking for a meal that’s simple, nutritious, and incredibly satisfying? Cabbage and eggs come together in this hearty dish that is bursting with flavor. Packed with vegetables and protein, it’s the perfect option for a quick breakfast, lunch, or dinner. With the richness of eggs and the earthiness of cabbage, this dish tastes even better than some meat-based meals.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 small cabbage, shredded
  • 5 eggs
  • 1 broccoli, cut into florets
  • 1 carrot, grated
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • 60 ml milk
  • 5 tablespoons flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 onions, chopped
  • Fresh dill, chopped (optional)
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Veggies: Start by shredding the cabbage, grating the carrot, and cutting the broccoli into small florets. Set these vegetables aside for later use.
  2. Cook the Onions: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and cook until they become soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
  3. Sauté the Cabbage and Broccoli: Add the shredded cabbage and broccoli florets to the skillet. Cook for about 7-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender but still retain some crispness. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
  4. Prepare the Egg Mixture: In a bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them together with the milk, flour, and baking powder. Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
  5. Combine and Cook: Pour the egg mixture over the sautéed vegetables in the skillet. Stir gently to ensure that the egg mixture is evenly distributed. Reduce the heat to low and cook for another 5-7 minutes, allowing the eggs to set.
  6. Garnish and Serve: Once the eggs are fully set, sprinkle freshly chopped dill and parsley on top to add a burst of fresh flavor. Serve hot and enjoy!

Notes

  • Storage: Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a skillet or microwave, though it’s best served fresh to maintain its texture.
  • Flavor Variations: Feel free to add extra seasonings such as garlic, smoked paprika, or a dash of hot sauce to elevate the flavor. You can also incorporate other vegetables such as spinach, zucchini, or bell peppers to vary the taste.
  • Dairy-Free Option: To make this recipe dairy-free, simply use a plant-based milk and omit any cheese or dairy ingredients. The dish will still have great flavor with the richness from the eggs and olive oil.
  • Customizing the Dish: Add a sprinkle of cheese on top, such as cheddar or feta, to make this dish extra creamy. You can also serve it with a side of crusty bread or a light salad for a more balanced meal.
