Indian Stir Fried Cabbage Recipes

PATTA GOBHI KI SABZI | CABBAGE STIR FRY

Steps:

• Soak the mung dal in ¼ cup of hot water while you prep the cabbage
• Cut the head of cabbage in half. Then take one half and place it with the flat side down on the cutting board and thinly slice the cabbage into long strips. Then cut the strips in half. Chop about 6 cups of cabbage
• Set the Instant Pot to saute mode and heat oil. Add cumin seeds and allow them to sizzle. Turn Saute off. Add turmeric, red chili powder, and cabbage. Add salt and mix. Add water and layer the soaked dal on top. NOT: Do not mix as the dal can stick to the bottom of the pot.
• Close the lid and cook for 1 minute followed by quick release. Press cancel and open the Instant Pot. Mix well and garnish with cilantro
• In a large nonstick pan heat oil. Add cumin seeds and allow them to sizzle. Add turmeric, red chili powder and cabbage, salt, and soaked mung dal. Mix well and cook covered with the lid on for 5 minutes on medium heat
• After 5 minutes taste and if the texture is good for you, turn the heat off and enjoy the cabbage. If you like it cooked soft, mix well and cook covered for another 5 minutes

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large wok over high heat. When the oil begins to smoke, add the mustard seeds, covering the wok with a lid or spatter screen. After the seeds stop sputtering, add the cabbage. Add the turmeric, garlic, salt and cayenne and toss well.
• Reduce the heat to medium and stir occasionally until crisp-tender. (The original recipe suggests you cover and steam the cabbage for 5 minutes but I don't have a cover so just mixed it around for 5 to 10 minutes.) Serve hot.

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.
