content: So this is a short one. It looks ugly, but its rather healthy, very cheap, fast to do (~15 min) and tastes great. And it can be modified basically every way you like.

content: Ah yes, I'm not the only one in the habit of "toss some shit into the pan and fry it" meals.Variations: potato (fine dice, ~hashbrowns -- like the canned style, not the shredded and deep fried kind, but that too), bell (or other) pepper is good, maybe carrot, bacon or other fatty meat of course welcome when handy (and you're into that sort of thing), etc. Two eggs on top (stirred in, fried, or scrambled) also good...Not really much of an accident, as at a high enough level of generalization you can describe any stir-fried dish this way; most stir-frys, curries, etc. fit the bill, given a sauce (broth, soy sauce, starch to thicken; spices and coconut milk; etc.)Serve over pasta or rice (or add lentils or other proteins or grains) for added bulk.Tim

content: Nice to know that you like itAs a side note: I can highly suggest adding some of Halcyon's turtoise powder he suggested for this dishhttps://www.eevblog.com/forum/cooking/chicken-katsudon-(japanese-crumbed-chicken-and-egg-rice-bowl)/- that works very well on there.

content: I'll see if I can make it without the mushrooms.What if I use pickled onions would be worth trying?

Mushrooms do that very well, but if you really don't/cant eat them, T3sl4co1l's suggestion of potatoes, finely diced or shredded, is probably the best choice that's readily available in and around Northern Europe.However if you are using red cabbage, try thin sliced (peeled and cored) Bramley cooking apples! Members in other regions may wish to experiment with pumpkin, squashes etc. aubergine, jackfruit or even tofu.The whole point of pickled onions is that crispy oniony sweet or sour pickled crunch. I can see them working sliced or chopped as a garnish on top when you plate it, but if you cook them, they wont bring anything to the dish, as there's already soft-cooked onion in there. If you want the sourness, a dash of a halfway decent vinegar will get you there - I save the walnut infused vinegar from jars of Oppies pickled walnuts - or you could use a decent mass-market Balsamic vinegar (not the really good traditional stuff), though I'd be more likely to chuck a dash of rice wine, (or sherry, wine or cider if I've got some open) in at the same time as whatever savory source you are using.

content: Canned mushrooms wont adsorb as much of the bacon grease as raw fresh ones do. You may need to drain off some of the bacon grease immediately before adding the mushrooms.If they adsorb more than I expect, you can always put a little of the removed grease back in immediately before the cabbage.
