Korean Marinated Cabbage Rolls with Carrots

Do you like cabbage rolls? Try them as a snack! Spring is already in full swing outside, and I still have supplies of cabbage and carrots, so I decided to cook a long-forgotten recipe. The cabbage rolls are very tasty, crispy and slightly spicy thanks to the carrots. The longer the cabbage rolls are marinated, the tastier they become; they taste best on day 3, but even after a day they turn out good. These cabbage rolls can be served as an appetizer on any holiday table.
