Ingredients for 4 people:

1 pointed cabbage
2 red onions
3 cloves of garlic
sesame oil
approx. 120 g red lentils
1 packet of gnocchi
approx. ½ l vegetable stock
250 g seitan
rapeseed oil
approx. 2 tablespoons tamari or shoyu
Herb salt
Freshly ground black pepper
Smoked paprika powder
¼ litre coconut milk
Cumin
Curry powder
Coriander powder
Cardamom powder
Ginger powder

 

Preparation:

1. For the gnocchi, clean and wash the pointed cabbage, quarter it and cut it into finger-thick pieces.
2. Peel the red onions, halve them and slice them.
3. Peel the garlic, remove the germ and chop it.
4. Heat the sesame oil in a wok pan. Fry the pointed cabbage with the red onions and garlic for a few minutes, stirring frequently.
5. Rinse the red lentils with cold water and add to the pan.
6. Remove the gnocchi from the packet and add to the wok pan. Mix everything together well.
7. Add the vegetable stock and simmer for about 10 minutes.
8. In the meantime, cut the seitan into strips and fry in rapeseed oil until crispy. Deglaze with tamari and season with herb salt, freshly ground black pepper and smoked paprika powder.
9. Pour the coconut milk and, if necessary, a little vegetable stock into the gnocchi. Mix in the fried seitan.
10. Season with herb salt, freshly ground black pepper, cumin, curry powder, coriander, cardamom and ginger powder and simmer for another 5 minutes.
11. Serve immediately.

 

My recommendations:

    • The red lentils can also be replaced with another type of lentil, e.g. mountain, beluga or puy lentils. However, these should be cooked until half done beforehand.
    • The pointed cabbage can also be replaced with another type of cabbage, e.g. savoy, Chinese or white cabbage.

 

 

Product description:

With its characteristic cone shape, pointed cabbage is easy to tell apart from other types of cabbage. Whether sautéed, baked in the oven or eaten raw, pointed cabbage is very versatile.It is the earliest type of cabbage to be harvested each year. Pointed cabbage tastes particularly mild in spring and summer, but has a stronger flavour in autumn. Like all other types of cabbage, pointed cabbage is a very healthy vegetable, particularly rich in vitamin C.
