Frequently Asked Questions About Cabbage stir-fry with ground beef
How do you make cabbage stir-fry with ground beef?
Brown the ground beef with chopped onion, then add thinly sliced cabbage, salt, pepper and a splash of water. Cover until the cabbage softens, then uncover and cook off excess liquid. Stir occasionally so the cabbage cooks evenly without sticking.
How do you keep cabbage stir-fry with ground beef from getting watery?

Can you make cabbage stir-fry with ground beef using red cabbage?
