Heat the cooking oil in a large pan or pot over medium heat.
If using, add the chopped onion and cook until softened and translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the sliced cabbage to the pan. Stir well to coat with oil. Cook for about 5-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage is softened but still has a little bite.
Season the cabbage with salt and pepper.
Push the cabbage to one side of the pan or make a space in the center. Crack the eggs into the pan.
Scramble the eggs gently with a spoon or spatula until they are almost cooked through.
Add the varškė (curd cheese) to the pan with the cabbage and eggs. Stir everything together gently until the cheese is mixed in and heated through.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Serve the scramble hot, alongside the fresh cucumber slices. If using, sprinkle with fresh herbs.
💡 Pro Tips for Your Cabbage Creation:
- 🤏 Don't overcook the cabbage! A slight bite is perfect for texture.
- 🔥 For a little heat, add a pinch of chili flakes when cooking the cabbage.
- 🥄 Serve this with a dollop of plain yogurt or sour cream if you have some handy - extra creaminess!
- 🔄 You can scramble the eggs separately and add them at the end if you prefer bigger egg pieces.
