Sweet and Sour Cabbage

I did this to go with the scallops and bacon, mainly because i had some cabbage in the fridge, not because i particularly thought it would go well. Luckily, it did! This is a very quick and easy way to cook cabbage, and you get quite a lot of bang for your buck , because it tastes quite sophisticated!

- Mix 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar with 3 tablespoons of white wine vinegar and 1 1/2 tablespoons of salt.
- Slice 1 large cabbage (green or white) finely.
- Heat 3 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large pan or wok and toss the cabbage in it for 2 mins.
- Add some soy sauce and the vinegar mixture and toss again for 1 min.
- Serve whilst still hot and crunchy.

The result is delicious even for someone like me who is not normally that keen on sweet and sour tastes.
