Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to fry cauliflower in a frying pan? Prepare your food. Take the number of eggs depending on the size of the head of cabbage. Or the purpose of the dish. You can take more for breakfast. If cabbage is served as a side dish, you can get by with one egg. Wash the eggs and dry with paper towels.

Step 2

Step 2
Rinse the cabbage well under running water. You can even soak it in water for a while. Separate a head of cabbage into florets. Itʼs simple: turn the cabbage upside down and cut off the small heads one by one. If the inflorescence is too large, cut it into several pieces.

Step 3

Step 3
Boil water in a large saucepan and add salt. Place the chopped cabbage in the pan and bring the water to a boil again. Cook the cabbage for about 10 minutes.

Step 4

Step 4
Place the finished cabbage in a colander. Let the water drain and the cabbage dry slightly. Excess moisture will interfere with frying.

Step 5

Step 5
Place a frying pan on the fire and heat it up. Melt butter in a frying pan. Instead, you can use melted butter, fat or vegetable oil with a high smoking point (refined varieties of sunflower, olive or grape). You can easily choose the right frying pan and oil for frying by reading articles on these topics. There are links to them at the end of this recipe.

Step 6

Step 6
Place the cauliflower in the pan. Fry the pieces, stirring them carefully, being careful not to damage the delicate flesh. Fry the cabbage for about 5 minutes or until it is lightly browned.

Step 7

Step 7
Break the eggs into a separate bowl and lightly beat them with a fork until the yolk and white are thoroughly mixed. Pour the egg mixture into the pan with the cabbage. Make the fire stronger.

Step 8

Step 8
Stir the egg mixture into the cabbage vigorously until everything cooks quickly, like scrambled eggs. The faster this happens, the more tender the eggs will be. Taste the dish for salt. If necessary, add more salt. Fried cauliflower is ready! Serve the dish hot. You can sprinkle with fresh chopped herbs. Bon appetit!
