. Prepare the Vegetables
Take out the cabbage leaves that are damaged and thoroughly rinse the cabbage.
Cut the cabbage into four parts, take out the tough core, and finely shred the leaves.
Cut the onion into thin slices and finely chop the garlic.
Cook the onion and the garlic.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the sliced onion and cook it for about 2 to 3 minutes, stirring from time to time, until it starts to soften.
Cook the finely chopped garlic for an additional 30 to 60 seconds until it is fragrant.
Take care that you don't burn the garlic.
Add the Cabbage
Shred cabbage and then add it to the skillet.
Add salt, black pepper, paprika, and Italian seasoning.
In the case of using red pepper flakes, add them at this point.
Mix all of it using a wooden spoon or spatula.
Cook Until Tender
Cook the cabbage for about 7 to 10 minutes, stirring every few minutes.
The cabbage should tenderize as it develops a few lightly golden, caramelized edges.
If the cabbage appears to be sticking to the pan then add a little water and continue cooking.
To get softer cabbage, cover the skillet for 2 to 3 minutes while you're cooking it.
Add the Eggs
Create four small spaces in the cabbage mixture.
