    How to Make Shan-Style Simmered Cabbage with Peanuts and Tomatoes

    1. Warm the Oil and Cook Shallots

    Place your wok or a wide heavy pot over medium heat and pour in the peanut oil. Allow the oil to warm up, which will take just a minute or so. When the oil is ready, add the red chile powder, turmeric, shallots, soybean disk powder (if you're using it), and salt. Stir these ingredients together, letting the shallots cook until they become translucent and the spices infuse the oil with their vibrant flavors. This should take several minutes, and you’ll know it's ready when the shallots are soft and the aroma of the spices fills your kitchen.

    2. Add Cabbage and Tomatoes

    Next, add the shredded cabbage and tomato wedges to the pot. Stir everything well to coat the vegetables with the fragrant oil and spices. Cover the pot and reduce the heat to medium-low. Let the cabbage and tomatoes simmer for about 10 minutes. This gentle cooking will allow the cabbage to soften and meld with the flavors of the tomatoes and spices.

    3. Add Peanuts and Miso

    After the initial simmer, add the chopped roasted peanuts and miso paste, if you’re using it. Stir everything together again, ensuring the peanuts and miso are well distributed. Cover the pot once more and continue to cook for another 10 to 15 minutes. During this time, the cabbage will transform into a tender, flavorful dish as it absorbs the rich tastes of the peanuts and miso.

    4. Final Adjustments and Serve

    Finally, taste the dish and adjust the salt if needed. Serve the Shan-Style Simmered Cabbage with Peanuts and Tomatoes hot or warm, enjoying the comforting blend of textures and flavors.
