Note

Ensure the cabbage is chopped uniformly for even cooking.

Do not overcrowd the pan when browning the Brussels sprouts to ensure they crisp up rather than steam.

Adjust salt to taste, keeping in mind that vegetables vary in natural salinity.

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
