Or it can stand on its own as light lunch, served with jasmine rice. With just a few pantry-friendly ingredients, galam plee pad nam pla comes together in less than 10 minutes thanks to high-heat wok cooking, a technique that illustrates the influence of Chinese cooking in Thai cuisine.
We begin by stir-frying bite-sized pieces of green cabbage with oil and chopped garlic in a ripping hot wok. Constant stirring and tossing prevents the garlic from burning, and helps lightly coat the cabbage leaves with oil, keeping them separate so they don't clump and turn soggy as they cook. Then we add drops of water around the sides of the wok, allowing the cabbage to lightly steam and soften without losing its refreshing crunch.
Adding drops of water around the sides of the wok during the stir-frying process helps to lightly steam the cabbage, while still maintaining its refreshing crunch. White pepper lends the dish a subtle “cold heat” spice that balances the sweet bitterness of the garlic and the cabbage.
