Scrumptious Savoy Cabbage
Scrumptious savoy cabbage is such an easy recipe to make and great for Phase I and all other Phases of D2D. Cabbage is a divine gift to humanity in all its forms and when we cook it on a low heat the antioxidant levels rise! Yep! So true!
If you're being extra health conscious you can prepare the cabbage with Shiokoji for 4-12 hours or overnight before using it in this recipe.
You can use other types of cabbage as well but savoy cabbage gives the greatest effect on the taste buds.
For phase II and beyond you could jazz this up by adding sundried fermented tomatoes and/or raisons
Ingredients
- 1 Savoy Cabbage
- 1/4 bicarbonate of soda

- 50 mls hot water
Method
- Crush the garlic and gently fry in the coconut oil on a low heat.
- Chop the cabbage into strips and place in the pain with the garlic
