The recipe is easy to prepare, healthy and very delicious - the cabbage melts in your mouth and is not crushed, as is done in a pan. You can use any meat you like, here I made it with chicken legs, but it goes very well with pork and beef.

Step by step

Step 1

Clean and wash the vegetables.

Step 2

In a larger pan, lightly fry the onion and carrot, cuted into medium pieces. Fry them just enough to soften, but they don't have to brown.

Step 3

Then add the diced tomatoes, mix well and leave for 5 minutes until it leaves a little juice.

Step 4

Cut the cabbage into medium pieces, not very small and add over the vegetables in the pan.

If the pan is full and you haven't put all the cabbage in, stir, let the cabbage soften a little more in the pan - then add another one over it (Cabbage decreases in volume quite a lot).

The cabbage just needs to be left a little, to be raw, don't fry it until becomes soft.
