1/4 c Cooking oil
2 Garlic cloves, minced
1 Onion, minced
1 c Meat, boiled (pork,
-chicken, or shrimp)
1 lg Carrot, cut into
-thin strips
1 sm Cabbage, shredded

celery.

When vegetables are cooked, add rice sticks or noodles and season with salt
and MSG. Garnish with spring onions. Serve with lemon.

NOTES:

* Filipino cabbage in garlic and soy sauce — I got this from Lynne
Fitzsimmons who got it from a Filipino friend of her mother’s.

* You will need a big frying pan to fit all the ingredients. You may
leave out the salt and MSG if you like. I have successfully used
lightly-microwaved bacon as the meat.
