Instructions

Step 1

Serves 2 to 4 servings

Step 2

In a wok or large carbon steel or stainless steel skillet, heat oil over high heat until just smoking. Move wok off-heat, add the garlic, and cook, keeping the wok off-heat and stirring constantly to prevent garlic from burning, until fragrant and lightly golden, about 30 seconds.

Step 3

Return wok to high heat, add the cabbage, and cook, stirring and tossing rapidly to ensure garlic doesn’t burn and cabbage is evenly coated in oil. Continue to cook, stirring frequently, and begin to carefully add a few drops of water, in 1/4-teaspoon increments around the sides of the wok, making sure water has fully evaporated between each addition, until cabbage is crisp-tender, 1 to 2 minutes.

Step 4

Add fish sauce around the sides of the wok, and continue to cook, tossing and stirring constantly, until fish sauce is fully absorbed into the cabbage, about 30 seconds. Season to taste with white pepper, transfer to a serving plate, and serve immediately with cooked jasmine rice on the side.
