Cabbage with Dried Shrimps

This is a homely Chinese recipe for cabbage cooked with dried shrimps (蝦米) which I am clearing from the fridge. The dried shrimps add a savoury depth to this homely vegetable side dish.

After cooking, the cabbage is soft & tender. Both cooked cabbage & dried shrimps are great with rice, porridge or bee hoon (rice vermicelli).

There is some sauce in this cabbage dish which is great for drizzling over rice. Compared to my stir-fried cabbage, this cabbage dish is more moist & soft while the stir-fried version (with less liquids used) is more crisp and caramelized. The style of cooking really depends on my mood on the day :)
