Instructions

1
1. Preheat the oven to 200 °C / 400 °F. Lightly grease a medium baking dish with 1 teaspoon of the vegetable oil.
2
2. Place the rolled oats in a large bowl and pour in the milk. Let them soak for 10 minutes.
3
3. Meanwhile, heat the remaining vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook for 4 minutes until softened.
4
4. Stir in the garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Add the tomato, sweet paprika, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring, until it forms a thick sauté.
5
5. Add the chopped green cabbage to the sauté and cook 4 minutes more, just until it starts to soften. Remove from the heat and let it cool for 3 minutes.
6
6. To the bowl with the soaked oats, add the beaten eggs, wheat flour, and baking powder. Mix well until you have an even base.

7. Fold the cabbage and tomato mixture into the bowl. Stir until all the ingredients are evenly combined.

10. Let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.

Chef tips

For a more golden top, place the dish on the upper oven rack for the last 5 minutes. If the cabbage releases a lot of moisture, cook it 1 to 2 extra minutes in the skillet before mixing.

Substitutions

You can use standard cabbage in place of green cabbage. Milk can be replaced with an unsweetened plant-based drink if you want a dairy-free version, but then the allergens and tags should also be adjusted. Fresh tomato can be replaced with thick crushed tomato in the same amount.
