+**The story behind this dish**
+The author of recipe often suffers from acid reflux and indigestion. Cabbage is known to help reduce stomach pain and intestinal Ulcers.
+[Read more](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1643665/). Because fresh cabbage juice isn't her favorite beverage, she came up with a brilliant idea to eat a large amount of cabbage and actually enjoy eating it.
+
+```
+return Stir-Fry Cabbage
+```
+
+## Ingredients
+
+* A large wok
+* Vegetable oil (olive oil x)
+* 1/2 of a large white cabbage
+* 3 pieces of 50g of slim Scallion (Green onion)
+* 2 pieces of large dried chili pepper
+* 5 or more cloves of garlic
+* Soy sauce, oyster sauce and sugar for making a base sauce
+
+- Base sauce needs to be prepared boiled with following ingredients
+  * 4:5:1 ratio of Soy sauce, Oyster sauce and sugar.
+    This would be 1 table spoon of soy sauce, a bit more than 1 table spoon of Oyster sauce and 1 tea spoon of sugar. 
+
+
+  * 1:1 ratio of Soy sauce and sugar for veggie friends.
+    For the vegetarian version, replace Oyster sauce with extra soy sauce and sugar because you will lose the sweetness of Oyster sauce.
+
+### Ingredient preparation
+
+* Slice cabbage for width of 1cm or less
+* Chop green onions for width of less than 1cm
+* Chop chili pepper large enough so that people don't eat it accidentally
+* Slice garlic
+
+### Method
+
+1. Heat the wok and add enough vegetable oil. This is stir-fry dish. Make sure to be generous with oil
+
+2. Once the wok is hot enough (on medium low), add green onions and wait until the oil starts to smell green onion-y. This is to add a primary flavor to oil. (For 3-4 min)
+
+3. Add red chili pepper and stir. This is to add secondary flavor to oil (3min)
+
+4. Add garlic and wait a min or two
+
+5. Add sliced cabbage and stir constantly to prevent it from being burnt
+
+6. Add base sauce based on members' preference because you don't want to eat alone
+
+7. Once the cabbage is half cooked, give it max fire on stove and stir it until done.
+   _This step is important because if cabbage stays on medium low until fully cooked, it gets too mushy and loses it's flavor of stir-fry dish._
+
+### Optional
+
+Stir-Fry Cabbage goes well with any type of rice or noodle. Also, most oyster sauce sold in Nazareth (i.e one from brand 'Taste of Asia' ) actually does not contain **oyster** so it is just flavor to mimic oyster sauce. I highly recommend adding oyster sauce when making base sauce therefore.
