Method
- Separate the cabbage leaves and remove any tough stalks. Roll up the leaves and shred them finely.
- Heat oil in a wok, add garlic and caraway seeds. Cook for about 30 secs without letting them burn or brown.
- Add the greens and leeks to the wok, and stir-fry for 6-7 mins, adding a splash of water to help steam the greens. Take off the heat and season well before serving (not suitable for freezing).
Top Tip for making Stir-fried spring greens
Woman's Weekly cookery editor Sue McMahon says: Choose from baby leaf greens or pointed spring cabbage for this recipe, which preserves the springy texture of the leaves
