Description

These Pan-Fried Cabbage and Noodle Buns are a delightful savory snack or appetizer featuring a flavorful mix of sautéed cabbage, noodles, and aromatic seasonings, all shaped into crispy golden buns and cooked to perfection in a skillet. Perfect for a quick and tasty meal or party treat.

Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked noodles
  • 1/2 head cabbage, finely chopped
  • 1/2 onion, chopped
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 tsp ginger, minced
  • 1/2 tsp garlic, minced
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Breading and Frying

  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • Oil for frying (vegetable or canola oil recommended)

Instructions

  1. Sauté Aromatics: In a skillet, heat sesame oil over medium heat and sauté the chopped onion, minced ginger, and minced garlic for 2-3 minutes until fragrant and softened.
  2. Cook Cabbage: Add the finely chopped cabbage and soy sauce to the skillet, cooking for 5-7 minutes until the cabbage becomes tender and slightly wilted.
  3. Combine Noodles: Stir in the cooked noodles and black pepper into the cabbage mixture, mixing thoroughly to combine all flavors evenly.
  4. Prepare Coating: In a separate bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour and cornstarch to create a light coating for the buns.
  5. Shape Buns: Form the noodle and cabbage mixture into small bun shapes, then coat each bun lightly with the flour and cornstarch mixture, ensuring even coverage.
  6. Pan-Fry Buns: Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat and cook each bun for 3-4 minutes per side until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside.
  7. Serve: Remove buns from the pan and serve immediately with your preferred dipping sauce for a delicious appetizer or snack.

Notes

  • Use cooked noodles that are well-drained to avoid soggy buns.
  • You can substitute soy sauce with tamari or coconut aminos for a gluten-free option.
  • Adjust seasoning with more garlic or ginger based on your taste preference.
  • These buns are best served hot and fresh for maximum crispiness.
  • Try dipping sauces like sweet chili sauce, soy sauce mixed with vinegar, or a spicy mayo for variety.
