Step 1
Adjust the amount of onions and carrots to your taste. You can also add bell peppers and fresh tomatoes. If you don’t have tomato paste, substitute with homemade adjika or ketchup.
Step 2
Wash the cabbage head and remove the outer leaves, as they’re often damaged. Shred the cabbage into thin strips.

Peel the onions and carrots. Slice the onion into half-rings or quarter-rings. Grate the carrots on a coarse grater or Korean-style grater.
Step 4
Pour a small amount of refined vegetable oil into the cauldron. Heat it over high heat. Add the carrots and onions to sauté.
Step 5
Cook, stirring occasionally, until golden.

Add the shredded cabbage and tomato paste to the cauldron.

If you’re using tomatoes, add them at this stage. (I also added a bit of vegetable seasoning.) Pour in about 1 cup (240 ml) of water.

Stir everything well. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer the cabbage, covered, for about 40 minutes.
