Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 tablespoon mustard oil
1 tablespoon black mustard seeds
2 bay leaves
1 medium head of cabbage (cored and finely shredded)
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon chili pepper flakes (optional)
4 fresh, hot green chilies (, , cut into long thin strips)
1/3 cup grated desiccated coconut

Steps:

  • First heat the mustard oil in a wok (or large frying pan).
  • When the oil is heated, add the mustard seeds and bay leaves.
  • When mustard seeds turn gray and start popping (a few seconds) add the cabbage, salt and sugar.
  • Quickly toss the cabbage in the oil until it’s lightly coated with oil and add coconut, green chili and optional pepper flakes.
  • Keep stirring for 2-5 minutes until the cabbage turns bright green and slightly wilted (but still somewhat crunchy).
  • Serve with Basmati rice.
  • Note: this dish is also excellent with Brussels sprouts or green beans instead of the cabbage.
