    I prepare stir-fries like this one fairly often and I find that it works well with a mixture of vegetables too. Cabbage could be used with carrots, cauliflower and even tomatoes for more flavor. The vegetables may have to be added to the oil at different times as their individual cooking times vary, and also depending on how crunchy or cooked you like them. If it's just cabbage, perhaps more seasonings could be used, like garlic and cilantro.

    I made this and thought it was bland, so tried it again but added some choriezo (sp?), sausage and cayenne pepper. Not only did it kick the flavor up, but made it a complete meal.

    Hi all, The recipe refers to 20 minutes of total cooking time. Most of that 20 minutes will be spent cooking the veggies. Hope this helps! --editors of RecipeLion

    response to dmolsen0305 9581572: OK I read the instructions also, and it said to "heat the oil in the frying pan 20 min. before serving", not 20 min. total cooking. I understand it to mean maybe 20 min. of total cooking, but that is not what the recipe states.

    If oil is heated for 20 minutes before you add anything wouldn't it catch on fire?

    Read the instructions!!! cook for 15 minutes, then 5 min covered. 15 +5 = 20
