Cabbage stew with olive oil is a tangy vegetable dish from Turkish home cooking, made by gently cooking cabbage in olive oil until tender. The sour note can come from lemon, vinegar or another tart ingredient, depending on the recipe and household.
The cabbage turns soft, while the olive-oil dressing brings a bright, gently sharp flavour. In Turkey, it is served warm or cool, often with bread or pilaf and alongside other olive-oil dishes; it also works as a simple vegetable side for an international table. At 72 calories and 2.2 g of fibre per 100 g, it is a modest, vegetable-forward option. Use a measured pour of oil for a lighter version, or pair it with beans for a more filling meal.
