Cabbage rice recipe! A quick, super affordable, and very tasty, everyday food.
4 servings for less than 1 euro!
If you're like us, and after you make a cabbage salad, you're left with half the cabbage in the fridge, and stare at it without knowing what to do with it, well... then this recipe is dedicated to you 🙂 Not only the cabbage doesn't get thrown away, but the result is excellent! It only takes 15 minutes to prepare it! Then it takes another 15-20 minutes for it to boil, but you can set an alarm to remind you, and go read a book or something.
A perfect meal for when we're in a hurry and want something delicious.
Try it and we look forward to your comments 🙂

Cabbage rice in 30 Minutes - A super easy, tasty, and within budget, recipe!
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 cup rice (we recommend arborio)
- 250 g white cabbage (8.8 oz) cut into 2 cm/0.8 in squares
- 1 liter vegetable broth or water
- 1 tomato grated
- 1 onion finely chopped
- 1 carrot grated
- 5 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- ½ tsp curry
- salt and freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- In a large pan heat the olive oil with the curry over medium to high heat.
- Once warm, add the onion and sauté for 2 minutes.
- Then, add the rice and sauté for 2 minutes (first rinse and drain it).
- Next, add the tomato and carrot and continue for 1 minute, stirring frequently.
- Add the cabbage and sauté for another 2 minutes.
- Finally, add the broth (or water), salt and pepper. Cover and simmer over low heat for 15-20 minutes. After 12-13 minutes, taste the rice every now and then and when it's done, remove the pan from the heat. If you intend to leave it in the frying pan for a while, remove it just before the rice is fully cooked, as it will continue to soften.
- It is served warm, but is eaten pleasantly and cold, especially when the weather is warm.

Thank you!
If you do not have carolina, we recommend arborium. You can use any other rice but the texture of the food will change dramatically, not only from the rice itself but also the different cooking time.
If you use basmati, the food will be affected by its special aroma. You can even use glaze if you like it to be softer rice. It does not indicate that it is not peeled in this recipe, although, in general, it is our favorite 🙂
It looks very nice! What other rice can we use?
Very glad you liked it! In the end it turns out that it is actually food for every day 🙂
I cooked it yesterday and put some peppercorns. It goes a long way. It turned out very nice! We ate it all and they asked me to make it again today, but I told them better tomorrow not to get bored! Thanks so much for the nice recipe!
