Clay Pot Bok Choy & Vermicelli — a Chinese recipe made with Napa cabbage, ready in about 25 minutes. Step-by-step instructions with photos.

Ingredients

• Napa cabbage
• rice vermicelli
• ginger
• light soy sauce

Instructions

1. Shred cabbage leaves finely; rinse and drain well. Grate ginger finely. (Cabbage shreds are uniform, 2 mm wide; no pooling water.)
2. Heat 1 tsp oil in clay pot over medium heat. Add ginger and stir 30 seconds until fragrant—do not brown.
3. Add cabbage and stir-fry 2 minutes until slightly softened but still crisp.
4. Pour in 300 ml hot water (or vegetable broth). Simmer 3 minutes.
5. Drain vermicelli and add to pot. Stir gently. Drizzle light soy sauce. Simmer 2 more minutes until noodles absorb broth and soften fully.
