Butter-fried green cabbage
It's not your grandmother's boiled cabbage leaves. Shredded green cabbage gets a low carb upgrade with plenty of butter for flavor and heft. If you can stir over medium heat, you can make this foolproof everyday favorite!

On LCHF, can we have coconut flour or almond flour?
I would appreciate your answer.

Yes! Coconut flour and almond flour are OK with LCHF. :)
Sorry for a missing answer.
The grading of food in liberal/moderate/strict is not a precise science so the grading for quite similar recipes can differ.
I will ask for an "official" answer regarding this recipe from our recipe department. ;-)
It's hard to find a way to classify recipes that always makes perfect sense. We've decided to use energy percent, as the least bad option.
When there's 0-4 percent of energy from carbs we classify it as strict, 5-10 is moderate and 10-20 percent is liberal. We generally do not publish recipes with more than 20 percent carbs.
We are trying to avoid focus on calories.

Me and hubby eat it at least twice a week now. I never knew it could taste so good :)

There are several free websites or apps that offer macronutrient information. Two popular ones are Carb Manager and Cronometer.
There is no industry standard for how much salt is included in salted butter. By using unsalted butter, you can add salt and pepper to your particular taste preferences. If you like this with salted butter, that's also fine!
