  1. Chop the cabbage finely. Cut each tomato into 8 cubes. Bash the lemongrass to bruise the stalks.
  2. Heat some olive oil in a large casserole.

  4. Add the finely chopped cabbage, cubed tomatoes, bruised lemongrass, kaffir leaves and 250ml (US 1cup) of vegetable stock. Bring to the boil, then cook covered under medium heat for 30 minutes until the cabbage is cooked. Stir from time to time so that the cabbage does not stick to the bottom of the pan.

  7. Remove the lemongrass stalks. Serve with some extra lime juice and chopped fresh red chillies on top.
