   --- Preparation ---

2. 2

   Cut the cabbage in half, and then cut out the core by cutting an upside V around the cabbage core. Slice the cabbage into slices and set it aside for later.Alternatively, if you like larger pieces of cabbage, you can also hand shred them into small pieces as well instead of cutting it.

3. 3

   Thinly slice the onion into ¼ inch slices and set it aside

4. 4

   Peel the garlic and finely chop it and set it aside

5. 5

   Grate the ginger and set it aside (if you don't grate the ginger, cut them into slices instead, so you can remove them later before serving)

   --- Making the Sauce ---

10. 10

    Add the garlic and ginger and brown it for approximately 1 minute until it is slightly brown and fragrant. Make sure to move it around so it doesn't burn

11. 11

    Add the cabbage into the frying pan and mix everything together.Flip the garlic and ginger from the bottom of the pan and set them on top of the cabbage so that they don't burn

12. 12

    Add the onions on top of the cabbage

13. 13

    Let the cabbage char in the pan by letting it cook and not touching it for about 1-2 minutes

14. 14

    Once 1-2 minutes pass, stir the cabbage around and mix the onions into it. Once it is well mixed, let it sit untouched again for another 1-2 minutes to let the onions and cabbage char again

    Once the 1-2 minutes has passed again, add in the sauce and mix the cabbage well with the sauce and let the cabbage soften by letting it cook for another 1 minute
