  1. Cabbage Egg Stir Fry Recipe

    If you’re looking for a quick, simple, delicious, high-protein and low-carb meal, this cabbage egg stir fry is perfect. It comes together in minutes, uses everyday ingredients and is ideal for a quick lunch or a light dinner, especially if you’re watching your carbs or managing blood sugar.

    Ingredients

    • 1-2 tbsp oil/butter
    • 1 tsp sesame seeds
    • 4 eggs
    • 1 tbsp oil/butter (for stir fry)
    • 6 to 7 garlic cloves, finely chopped
    • 1 green chilli, chopped
    • 2 spring onions, chopped (separate whites and greens)
    • 2 cups cabbage, finely shredded
    • 1 tbsp chicken powder (I used one Maggi chicken cube. You can use chicken broth cube or similar)
    • 1 tbsp soy sauce
    • 1 tbsp oyster sauce
    • Salt to taste

    Instructions

    Step 1: Scramble the eggs
    Heat oil/butter in a pan on medium flame and add sesame seeds. Once they begin to crackle, add the eggs and scramble them until just cooked. Remove and keep aside.

    Step 2: Prepare the base
    In the same pan, add a little more oil. Add garlic, green chillies and the white part of spring onions. Sauté for a few seconds until fragrant.

    Step 3: Cook the cabbage
    Add the shredded cabbage and cook on high flame. Keep tossing and stirring to keep it slightly crunchy and not soggy.

    Step 4: Season the stir fry
    Add chicken powder, soy sauce and oyster sauce. Mix well so the cabbage absorbs all the flavours. Taste check and add salt only if required.

    Step 5: Combine everything
    Add the scrambled eggs back into the pan. Toss everything together and cook for about a minute.

    Step 6: Finish and serve
    Add the green part of spring onions, give it a final mix, and serve hot.

    Tips for Best Results

    • Avoid overcooking the eggs before adding them back
    • Adjust sauces based on your taste preference

    Crowdfarming allows you to select the grower. I ordered a 4kg box, enough to provide marmalade for a year.
    The oranges are directly transported from him to me.
    The box smelt delicious, the house filled with the smell of oranges before I even got the first pan boiling.
    Because I have energy limiting conditions and can't stand for long, I just boil half of them then extract the pulp. The other half my home help peels (with a potato peeler) then shreds the peel and juices them for me.
    I add a tiny bit of sugar to help preserve it, plus carb free sweetener. Then because it won't set well without loads of sugar I boil it down over several days (I bought an electric pan stirrer for this). The result is the strongest marmalade you'll ever taste.
    It keeps in the fridge for at least a year.

    In the past, I've ordered other stuff from crowdfarming but bought oranges from my usual supermarket. This year they stopped selling them.

  8. One week on my 16:8 fasting diet and only lost 1 kg (about 2 lbs). Not much, but at least inflammation is way down. I apparently have arthritis on my right arm, and the pain is already way down. I can actually lift my arm now...

  9. Unbelievable! I've had high blood pressure most of my life, and I'm on two medications for it. It runs in my family, and I always needed to be careful about it. But just 1 week into my Paleo-style low calorie, low carb diet, with intermitted fasting elements (mostly 16-8 fasting) my blood pressure now measures just 102/71. I've never seen such low numbers in me, and so fast. I'll have to adjust my medication now.
