Making cheese with cabbage

 Making cheese with cabbage might sound unusual, but there are a few creative ways to bring these ingredients together. Here are two ideas:


🧀 Option 1: Cabbage-Wrapped Cheese Balls (Savory Appetizer)

A snack where cheese is the star, and cabbage adds flavor and crunch.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup grated cheese (cheddar, gouda, or mozzarella)

  • 1/4 cup cream cheese (optional, for binding)

  • 1 cup finely chopped or sautéed cabbage

  • Salt & pepper to taste

  • Paprika, chili flakes, or herbs (optional)

  • Blanched cabbage leaves (for wrapping)

Instructions:

  1. Cook cabbage: Lightly sauté chopped cabbage in a little oil until soft. Season with salt and pepper. Let cool.

  2. Mix filling: In a bowl, combine grated cheese, cream cheese (if using), and cooled cabbage. Add spices or herbs.

  3. Form balls: Shape into small balls.

  4. Wrap: Wrap each ball in a cabbage leaf. Chill for 30 minutes to help them firm up.

  5. Serve: Enjoy as cold bites or lightly bake them at 180°C (350°F) for 10 minutes to melt the cheese.


🧀 Option 2: Cabbage Cheese Fritters (Pan-fried Snack)

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup shredded cabbage

  • 1/2 cup shredded cheese

  • 1 egg (or flax egg for vegan version)

  • 2–3 tbsp flour (regular or chickpea)

  • Salt, pepper, and spices (turmeric, cumin, or paprika)

  • Oil for frying

Instructions:

  1. Mix: In a bowl, mix all ingredients until a thick batter forms.

  2. Shape: Form small patties or drop spoonfuls into a pan.

  3. Fry: Shallow-fry until golden on both sides.

  4. Serve hot: With yogurt dip, ketchup, or spicy mayo.
