Indian Cabbage And Peas Stir Fry Recipes

INDIAN CABBAGE AND PEAS STIR FRY

Steps:

• Heat oil in pan over medium heat. Add mustard seeds, cumin seeds, and red chiles. They will start to crackle, like popcorn.
• After they have crackled for a couple minutes, add green chile and optional onion. Fry 3-4 minutes.
• Add shredded cabbage. Cover and cook about 3 minutes, stirring twice.
• Add peas, turmeric, and salt. Cook 6-7 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Add optional curry leaves at the end.

INDIAN CABBAGE STIR-FRY

Steps:

• Place mung beans in a large container and cover with several inches of cool water; let soak for 4 hours. Drain.
• Bring water to a boil in a large pot. Add the drained mung beans. Cook until almost tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from heat. Stir cabbage and salt into the pot. Let stand until cabbage wilts, about 10 minutes.
• Drain the cabbage mixture in a colander and set aside.
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over high heat. Test heat by adding 1 mustard seed; oil is hot enough if the seed splutters. Add remaining mustard seeds, curry leaves, garlic, cumin seeds, and asafoetida. Cook for 1 minute.
• Squeeze out excess moisture from the cabbage; add in small amounts to the skillet, stirring well between additions. Stir-fry cabbage mixture for 2 to 3 minutes. Season with salt, turmeric, and chile powder. Reduce heat to low; stir-fry for 4 to 5 minutes more. Garnish with coconut and cilantro.

Steps:

• Shred the cabbage coarsely.
• Heat the oil in a large skillet and stir in the crushed red chilies, ginger, mustard seeds, cumin, bay leaves, coriander, turmeric, and salt.

• Add the water and the peas.
• Cover, and cook over medium heat for 20 minutes.
• Remove the cover, stir in the margarine, garam masala, lemon juice, and sugar, and simmer- uncovered- for another 10 to 15 minutes.
