cabbage patties recipe Golden Shallow Fried
- Total Time: 40 minutes
- Yield: 16 patties (about 8 servings) 1x
- Diet: Vegetarian
Description
This recipe creates golden shallow-fried cabbage patties with crispy edges and a tender, flavorful interior. It is an easy and wholesome dinner idea, perfect for a cozy weeknight meal.
Ingredients
- 1 medium head cabbage, shredded (about 4 cups or 450 g)
- 1 large egg
- 0.5 cup all-purpose flour (60 g)
- 0.5 small onion, finely diced
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon dried dill
- 0.5 cup high smoke-point oil (120 ml, for shallow frying)
Instructions
- Prepare Cabbage: Shred cabbage finely using a sharp knife or food processor. Place the shredded cabbage in a large bowl, sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of salt, and let it sit for 10 minutes to draw out excess moisture. After resting, firmly squeeze out as much liquid as possible with your hands to prevent soggy patties.
- Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the squeezed cabbage with the finely diced onion, minced garlic, the egg, all-purpose flour, black pepper, and dried dill. Mix thoroughly with your hands or a spoon until all ingredients are evenly incorporated and feel slightly sticky. If the mixture feels too wet, add another 1-2 tablespoons of flour.
- Form Patties: Take about 0.25 cup of the mixture for each patty. Shape them into uniform, round patties, approximately 0.5-inch thick.
- Shallow Fry Patties: Heat 0.5 inch of oil in a large skillet (e.g., 10-inch) over medium heat until it shimmers. Carefully place the formed patties into the hot oil without overcrowding the pan; cook in batches if necessary. Fry for 4-6 minutes per side, or until each patty is beautifully golden brown and cooked through in the center, ensuring a satisfying crisp exterior.
Notes
Always squeeze out excess liquid from the cabbage to prevent soggy patties. Avoid overcrowding the pan when frying; cook in batches to maintain oil temperature and ensure crispy results. For plant-based, use a flax egg (1 Tbsp ground flaxseed + 3 Tbsp water). For gluten-free, use a 1:1 gluten-free all-purpose flour blend.
