Egg Roll with Cabbage

Cabbage is a very versatile vegetable, it is easy enough to plant, and excellent for any cooking.
It can be braised, steamed, and baked.  I will be using cabbage with a difference in this dish.
Mixing the cabbage with eggs, then cook it as a giant pancake and stuff it with prawns.

Cabbage Head

A cabbage head is consumed raw, cooked or preserved.  It is the principal ingredient in coleslaw. In the summertime I use the cabbage for salads, in autumn I do a stir fry with it, for winter, I cook it for soups.  Right now is the first month of winter I saute and pan fry cabbage with egg and prawns.  The weather is not too cold for us to be able to enjoy this lovely warm cabbage egg roll.
