Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 medium head cabbage, thinly sliced Aim for noodle-like strips.
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon salt (to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper (to taste)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Start by slicing your cabbage thinly. Aim for noodle-like strips, as this will give the best texture in your dish. Rinse it under cold water and let it drain.
  2. In a large saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the cabbage and sauté for about 5-7 minutes, or until it's just tender but still has a little bite to it.
  3. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
  4. Reduce the heat to low and pour in the heavy cream, stirring constantly. Let it simmer gently for about 2-3 minutes, allowing it to thicken slightly.
  5. Gradually add the grated Parmesan cheese, mixing until melted and the sauce is creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Toss the cabbage noodles in the Alfredo sauce and ensure they are well coated.
  7. Plate your Cabbage Noodles Alfredo, and if desired, sprinkle extra Parmesan and cracked black pepper on top for added flavor.

Notes

You can substitute heavy cream with half-and-half or coconut milk for a dairy-free version. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days.
