This was great! Recipe came together quickly. We used shrimp for the protein. Will be making this again!
Was cooking while the neighbor guys were at our house and they were all sad they weren’t staying for dinner! Need to double for them sometime to try!
Thanks for a great recipe!
the recipe was good, but it doesn’t tell you when to add the garlic mixture; this step is omitted entirely. Also I needed to cook my (red) cabbage a lot longer. But otherwise it was great!
oh sorry! i thought that was referring just to the soy sauce bowl. Idon’t think of ginger and garlic as spices, whoops. Can I ask why the two collections are separated?
In step 5 it says to add the “soy sauce and spice mixture”, suggesting they are to be mixed together, but in step 1 it says to keep them separate: “In a small bowl, combine the garlic, ginger, red pepper flakes and cloves. In a separate bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of the soy sauce, the rice vinegar, and the maple syrup.”
What have I missed?

The next time I make this i will completely leave out the ground clove. Completely took over the dish… that’s all I tasted
Thanks for the feedback, Cori, Yes, you can omit it for your personal taste. Hope this helps!
Really good! Just a comment about printing it…..in the future please don’t underline any of the ingredients, as they won’t print – at least that was the case for me. Not sure why only 3 of the ingredients were. underlined, which doesn’t make any sense.
Hi Anne, I’m sorry to hear you are having an issue with printing. We’ve tested it and can not replicate the issue.

My kid who doesn’t like cabbage specifically told me he quite liked this dish, as did the rest of the family. I liked that it was easy to modify for both meat eaters and vegetarians, as the veggies are cooked separately from the protein. I roasted seasoned chickpeas, cashews and pumpkin seeds for the vegetarian protein. I’m not a big fan of ground turkey, but I used it and found that the soy sauce used during sauteeing the turkey helped deepen the flavor nicely. The flavor profile overall was great.
I really appreciate the use of volume and weight measurements in the recipe. Thank you!
I’m sorry to hear the recipe wasn’t to your taste, David. I know it’s disappointing to try a new recipe and not enjoy it. I (and many other readers) have enjoyed it, so I really wish they would’ve been a hit for you too!
I grew cabbage and tried this recipe. It’s a keeper. I loved it !! I used dry ginger since I didn’t have fresh. I used pancake syrup since I didn’t have real maple syrup. I know it’s not the same but I assumed it’s the sugar that’s needed here. Maple would be much better I’m sure. I used ground pork since that’s what I had. But even with these switches it was good and following the exact recipe would be even better. 👌
Hi Carmen! The recipe is in the recipe card, right above the area where you commented. You can click the “jump to recipe” button at the top of the screen to get you to it faster. Hope this helps!
If you’re not crazy about perfume-y tastes in a savory dish would recommend less or no cloves. Other than that it was a great and thorough recipe. In the future I will remake and omit cloves!
Hi Erin. Thank you for sharing the recipe. This was delicious. It’s flavorful, light and colorful. I sub the peppers flakes for 1/8 of cayenne pepper and double the soy sauce, rice vinegar and maple syrup (we just like more sauce). We had plenty for a family of 5. We’ll make it again.
Tried this the other night with lean ground beef and my wife and I loved it! Instead of the ground cloves I used Chinese 5 spice which was a flavor we never had before but really enjoyed. This will definitely be on the weekly rotation as not only is it delicious but it’s also so easy to make. Thanks Erin for another great recipe!
I made this a few weeks ago after Googling “what to make with napa cabbage?” My whole family LOVED it including my 2 year old! Served with brown rice and it was delightful – an excellent way to stretch a pound of ground chicken or turkey too.
Thank you for a great recipe! I made it exactly as written except I only used 1/8 teaspoon of ground cloves and used Napa instead of green cabbage as that was all I had. Everyone loved it! I will definitely make it again.

Hi Katie, glad you enjoyed it. It’s in Step 5 where it says add the soy sauce and spice mixture. Hope this helps!
oh sorry! i thought that was referring just to the soy sauce bowl. Idon’t think of ginger and garlic as spices, whoops. Can I ask why the two collections are separated?
Hi Katie, the only thing that is separated is 2 tablespoons of soy sauce that you’ll add at the end to elevate the flavor profile. Enjoy!

Added avocado, soft boiled egg, chili onion crisp and chopped cashews. Delish!
Yum! Thanks Emily!
I used ground beef and ground turkey, this was yummy! I will definitely put this in the rotation!
thanks
Great to hear, thank you lakeatia!

So glad to hear you enjoyed it, Elaine! Thank you!
I thought cloves in a stir fry sounded weird, but I gave it a shot. Nope. I ended up throwing it out, nobody in my family liked it.
I’m sorry to hear the recipe wasn’t to your taste, David. I know it’s disappointing to try a new recipe and not enjoy it. I (and many other readers) have enjoyed it, so I really wish they would’ve been a hit for you too!
Hi David, each piece of garlic is called a clove of garlic. Cloves are a completely different spice that would taste gross in this. Hope that helps!

Glad to hear you enjoyed it, Linda! Thank you!
I enjoyed this. I’m doing a diet so this was ideal.
Great to hear, thank you Martin!
Sorry, am I missing something? I don’t see any measurements.

Hi Gabby! We enjoy the flavor the cloves add but you can definitely leave them out if you’d prefer! Thanks for the feedback!
This is the bomb!! I made it with ground turkey. My son and I loved it. So so good!! And healthy! Thank You!
Thank you Andrea!

Great to hear, Maria! Thank you!
Loved it, did not add the rice or noodles to keep the carb level down. Will make again and perhaps add quinoa. Cloves is the ticket!!!
So glad to hear you enjoyed it, Ginny! Thank you!
Wonderful family recipe! Delicious, easy and budget friendly. Love it!
So glad to hear, Tulla!

So glad you enjoyed the dish, Linda! Thank you!
Loved it! I used ground Turkey and kept everything else the same. My husband put a handful of peanuts on top of his. Very easy!
So glad you enjoyed it, Mary!

Glad to hear it worked well! Thanks Deb!
Made tonight with ground chicken; grated garlic and ginger for ease. Delish! My 3.5yo went for seconds!
Thank you Jenny!
