Ingredients

4 Tablespoons minced shallots
3 Tablespoons minced coriander
1/2 teaspoon Salt
1/2 teaspoon Ground white pepper
1 pound (500 g) large cabbage
10 Whole spring onion greens,
6 Cups (11/2 liters) chicken or pork
2 Tablespoons sliced spring onions,

Directions

1
Prepare the cabbage by removing tough outer leaves and slicing the rest into bite-sized pieces. Blanch the cabbage in boiling water for 2-3 minutes until just tender-crisp, then drain and set aside.
2
In a large pot or Dutch oven, combine 1.5 liters (6 cups) of chicken or pork stock with 2-3 stock cubes if using plain water. Bring the liquid to a gentle simmer over medium-high heat.
3
Add the minced shallots to the simmering broth and cook for 2 minutes until they become fragrant and slightly translucent.
4
Stir in the blanched cabbage, minced coriander, salt, and ground white pepper. Reduce heat to medium-low and let it simmer for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
5
If using raw chicken or pork, add the meat to the pot now and simmer for an additional 15-20 minutes until the meat is cooked through and tender. If the meat is pre-cooked or if this is a vegetable-focused broth, skip this step.
6
Just before serving, stir in the whole spring onion greens and sliced spring onions. Turn off the heat and let the dish sit for 2 minutes to wilt the greens slightly.
7
Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt or pepper if needed. Ladle the hot stew into bowls and serve immediately.
