Ingredients
- Bacon - 100 grams
- Green cabbage - 200 grams, chopped
- Onion - 1 small, diced
- Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
- Olive oil - 1 tablespoon
- Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
- Black pepper - 1/4 teaspoon
- Red pepper flakes - 1/4 teaspoon (optional)
- Eggs - 4 large
Steps
- In a large skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove bacon from the skillet and set aside, leaving the drippings in the pan.
- Add olive oil to the skillet, then add the diced onion and cook for 2-3 minutes until softened.
- Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Add the chopped cabbage to the skillet, stirring well to combine. Season with salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes if using. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage is tender and slightly caramelized.
- Meanwhile, in a separate pan, fry the eggs to your liking (sunny-side up, over-easy, etc.).
- Once the cabbage is cooked, crumble the reserved bacon over the top and mix well.
- Serve the cabbage and bacon mixture on plates, topped with a fried egg on each serving.
