    Step 1.

    Prepare the ingredients according to the list. It is better to use fresh, juicy and young white cabbage, the head should be tight. We clean the cabbage from the upper dry and dirty leaves, cut it into pieces no more than 1 centimeter thick and about 5-7 cm wide. If desired, of course, cabbage can be "cut" in a different way, for example, divided into leaves and cut out squares from them. But it seems to me that such pieces turn out tastier.

  2. Step 2:

    Step 2.

    In order for the cabbage to be crispy, but at the same time soft and tasty, without the specific bitterness inherent in fresh white cabbage, it needs to be blanched. To do this, we lower the pieces of cabbage one by one into boiling salted water and keep on fire for a few minutes. We take the cabbage out of the water with a slotted spoon and throw it into a colander so that all the liquid runs off.

  3. Step 3:

    Preparing the batter. In a deep bowl, we drive a chicken egg, add a pinch of salt and ground black pepper, beat the ingredients with a fork or whisk so that the egg white is completely dispersed.

    Step 5.

    We lower each piece of cabbage into the batter so that it is covered with the mixture from all sides. Pour vegetable oil into the pan, heat it well. Spread the pieces of cabbage on the preheated oil and fry them on medium heat on both sides until browned.
