Bacon Shredded Cabbage

Bacon Shredded Cabbage

This **Stir-Fried Cabbage with Bacon** is a bold, flavorful dish that combines smoky bacon, crisp cabbage, and aromatic spices for an irresistible meal. The recipe starts by crisping up savory bacon in a hot wok, infusing the oil with rich, meaty depth. Fragrant garlic, fiery dried chilies, and numbing Sichuan pepper are then stir-fried to release their bold aromas. Fresh cabbage is added, stir-fried until just tender but still crisp, then tossed with the crispy bacon for a perfect texture contrast. A drizzle of umami-rich steamed fish soy sauce and a pinch of salt enhance the natural sweetness of the cabbage. The optional lard adds an extra layer of richness, making every bite indulgent. Quick, easy, and packed with layers of spice, smokiness, and crunch, this dish is a must-try for lovers of bold, rustic flavors—ready in minutes and perfect with steamed rice!
