Cabbage Subji
Ingredients
- 1 small size cabbage, finely chopped
- 3 teaspoons oil
- 3 dry red chillies, chopped (adjust according to tolerance :-)
- 1 teaspoon mustard seeds
- 1 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 2 teaspoons dessicated coconut powder (optional)
- Salt to taste
- 1/2 cup sesame seeds
- 4 dry red chilies, chopped
Instructions
To prepare the masala, roast the chillies and the sesame seeds till the seeds are slightly brown and fragrant. Now powder the mixture finely and store it in an airtight container for future use. Heat the oil in a vessel, add the mustard seeds, turmeric powder and the red chillies and wait till the seeds start to sputter. Add the cabbage, stir well, and cook covered(you may want to add some water to expedite the process). When the cabbage is about half way done, season w/ about 4 teaspoons of the masala and coconut, stir, and continue till the cabbage is well done. Add salt to taste and serve w/ chapatis (Indian whole wheat bread) or rice and daal (lentils).
