You'll Need
Cabbage. It has a mildly sweet and earthy flavor that can easily be enhanced by a variety of spices and herbs. You can use white or red cabbage.
Carrots. Carrots will improve the texture of this recipe by adding a subtle crunch to each bite.
Green onion.
Eggs. Eggs act as the binding agent so that all ingredients you are gonna use in this recipe stick together.
All purpose flour. Flour also helps in binding the patties together. Plus, flour is responsible for making sure that your patties come out crisp and golden brown!
Seasonings: I use salt, black pepper, paprika, and coriander. These seasonings elevate the flavor of your cabbage patties.
Garlic.
Vegetable Oil. Fry your patties in vegetable oil. Other cooking oils with a high smoke point will also do. You may use olive oil or avocado oil instead.

How To Make Cabbage Patties?
One: In a large bowl, mix shredded cabbage, eggs, carrots, garlic, green onion, flour and all the seasonings until combined.
Two: Heat the oil in a large frying pan over medium low heat; scoop ¼ cup of the mixture and form a patty shape with your hand then put it in the hot oil and press down on it with a spatula; fry for 2-3 minutes on each side over medium-low heat until golden brown, repeat until you finish all the mixture.
Top Tips!
- Use fresh cabbage. If you want your patties to be more flavorful with better texture. Old or wilted cabbage will only make the whole dish taste bitter.
- Cabbage and carrots alike contain too much water. Drain them both before shredding them so your patties won't be soggy.
- Let your uncooked patties rest in the fridge for 30 minutes or an hour if you aren't in a rush. This will allow the patties to settle into their form before frying.
- Grease your pan well, or use a non-stick pan so the patties won't stick to the bottom of the pan when frying. This will also let you avoid ruined texture and shape.
- Use the food processor or the Mandoline slicer to shred the cabbage and carrot.
Pair Them With
I enjoy these patties alongside Beef Cutlets, Garlic Butter Steak and Potatoes, Pizza Spaghetti Bake, or Peanut Butter Chicken! A simple iced tea or soda will already be perfect to wash them down too! Or simply serve it with salad such as Bon Bon Chicken.
Storage
Uncooked patties can be refrigerated for three days and frozen for up to three months. However, if your patties are already fried, it's best to just refrigerate them for up to three days. Freezing an already-cooked patty will only make the texture dry.

I love Cabbage Patties. I eat them with a thin roll and a slice of cheese, warmed in the Microwave. They are delicious and low-calorie. I have also made them with Zucchini. Be sure to squeeze the juice after shredding the Zucchini.
