Prep Time: 5 minutes

Cook Time: 10 minutes

Serves: 2-3

INGREDIENTS NEEDED:

· One cabbage, medium

· Psyllium husk powder, 1 1/2 tbsp

· Water

PREPARATIONS:

1. Remove the outer leaf of the cabbage, wash it, remove the core, and chop it into small chunks.

2. Pour enough water into the blender to make it work properly, then blend until smooth.

3. Place the blended cabbage in a cheesecloth or nut bag. Allow the water to drain.

4. Gently squeeze to release more water (don't squeeze until dry).

5. Transfer cabbage to a pot and stir for about a minute over medium heat.

6. Mix in the powdered psyllium husks. To avoid lumps, vigorously mix in. Stir continuously until the cabbage has come together.

7. Turn off the heat source. Make three servings of the cabbage fufu—wrap cling film around each section.

8. At this point, the cabbage fufu will be very soft. Don't worry; the mixture will harden up as it cools. Allow for an 8-minute rest before serving with your favorite soup.

Refrigerate the remainder for later use.
