Ingredients

  • 1 head cabbage
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, or as needed
  • 1 small onion, thinly sliced
  • ½ chopped green bell pepper
  • 1 green onion, sliced
  • 1 whole Scotch bonnet chile pepper
  • 2 sprigs fresh thyme
  • 1 teaspoon salt (Optional)
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • ¼ cup white vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons white sugar

Directions

Step 1
Peel tough outer leaves from cabbage. Core the head and shred cabbage; set aside.

Step 2
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat; add onion, bell pepper, and green onion. Cook and stir vegetables until softened, about 5 minutes. Mix in Scotch bonnet pepper, thyme, and salt.

Step 3
Stir cabbage and carrots into onion mixture until thoroughly combined. Cover the skillet and reduce heat to medium-low. Cook, stirring occasionally, until cabbage starts to soften, about 10 minutes.

Step 4
Stir in vinegar and sugar. Cook, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until cabbage is tender, about 3 more minutes. Discard Scotch bonnet pepper and thyme before serving.
