If you think you don’t like cabbage, you’ve got to try these.

Inspired by the Korean Beef Bowl on page 188 of my new cookbook (make it if you haven’t already!), these dumpling cousins are perfect if you want something super flavorful & fun to eat without the carbs and more protein.

If you dont have my cookbook yet, just comment SHREDHAPPENS & I’ll message you how to get it!

Here is how I made it:

Ohjeet

Start by finely dicing 8oz mushrooms…small is key. Sauté in 1 tbsp avocado oil over medium heat for 7-10 mins until browned and the liquid has been released. You want to remove as much excess liquid from these as possible. Set aside.

In a small bowl, whisk 1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 tbsp monk fruit sweetener (or sugar), 1 tbsp toasted sesame oil, 4 minced garlic cloves, 2 tsp grated ginger, & 1 tbsp gochujang or chili garlic sauce. This will be your sauce. Reserve 1/4 of it for dipping later.

In the same pan you cooked the mushrooms, add 1 tbsp avocado oil, 3-4 finely diced small shallots (or 1/2 red onion), then add 1 lb ground beef and break it up well. When no more pink, add in the mixture from step 2. Let everything simmer & reduce for 5-10 mins, then turn off the heat and add 2 thinly sliced scallions & sesame seeds. Set aside.

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add 12-15 cabbage leaves and boil for 2.5–3 mins, just until softened. Remove & pat dry with a kitchen towel. You want a cabbage with large surface area, so Savoy or Napa is best.

Once cooled, trim 1/4 inch of the base of each leaf. Place 1.5-2 tbsp of filling near the base, fold the bottom over, tuck in the sides, and roll tightly into a dumpling shape.

Warm a pan over medium heat 1 tbsp avocado oil. Cook the rolls for 2 mins per side .

Dip in the reserved marinade or whatever dipping sauce you like

ENJOY! If you make it, be sure to let me know!
