Cabbage Curry - Super Quick, Easy, Tasty!

I have a love-hate relationship with cabbage. When I think about it, I don't like it. But when I see it, I either want to throw it in a salad if it is tender, or lightly sautee - indian style.

It is not easy to find really nice, tender cabbage, so I am going to explain the yummy quick sautee method here. The dish in the picture shows a leftover dinner I had - persian rice (leftover), a simple salad with bits of vegetables in the fridge, and cabbage sautee. It was actually a pretty good meal!

Ingredients

2 tbsp oil
1 tsp mustard seeds
1 tsp cumin seeds
1 tsp black gram lentil (urad dal)
2 green chilies, sliced long
1/2 head of cabbage, very finely chopped
salt to taste
cilantro for garnish

Directions

1. Heat oil on high heat. Add cumin and mustard seeds. When they just start to pop, add the black gram lentil and green chillies.
2. Few seconds later, add the cabbage and salt. Reduce heat to medium and toss the cabbage around until it has slightly wilted, about 4 minutes.
3. Garnish and enjoy!
