Cabbage potato curry is a easy to make dish with less ingredients & can also be made in less time. As mentioned in the note you can simply ignore adding garlic & replace it with hing/asafetida.

Cabbage Moong Dal Curry

Cabbage Moong Dal Curry is another tasty way of using cabbage. I love the mix of  cabbage & moong dal when they are tempered with hing. Hing/Asafetida gives a very unique taste to the curry & makes it much more flavorful. I wouldn't like to skip adding hing or replacing it with something else, as it pairs perfectly with the curry. As you can see this is a easy to make dish & can be made in no time too. Enjoy this dish !!!

Cabbage Curry

Cabbage curry with less spices is always comforting & soothing to your stomach. Cabbage is one of those veggies you don't have to add too many spices to make it flavorful. With little effort you can make yummy dishes out of this veggie. As a kid I hated this veggie a lot & all that hatred changed when I started experimenting on cabbage. This is a simple, yet basic recipe I'm sharing here & can be made in very less time too. 
For this week theme on BM I'm presenting "One Ingredient & 3 dishes". Enjoy the dishes & don't miss the update. Check out the Blogging Marathon page for the other Blogging Marathoners doing BM#49.

1Tsp mustard
1Tsp jeera/cumin
1Tsp chana dal
1Tsp urad dal

Few curry leaves
To Grind
4Tbs grated coconut (fresh or dry)
2Green chili's {adjust as needed} 
1Tsp grated ginger
Directions 
- Heat pan with oil & to that add in mustard, jeera, chana dal, urad dal, red chili's & curry leaves.
Method 1:
- Once the mustard starts jumping add in chopped cabbage & close pan with lid. 
- Cook on low heat for 10mins & once you see the cabbage is oozing out little wetness, remove lid & continue to cook on low heat for another 5mins. 
- Mean while coarse grind ginger, green chili's & coconut. 
- Add salt to the curry & also the grind coconut mixture to pan. Mix them well & cook for 2minutes. Then switch off heat. 
Method 2:
- If cabbage is not tender, then you can pressure cook cabbage ahead. 
- Add it to the tempering & cook for few minutes. 
- Then add in the grind coconut mixture & salt  to the curry. Cook for 2more minutes & switch off heat. 
- Curry is ready to be served.
Note
- I prefer pan cooking cabbage than pressure cooking it. I feel cabbage becomes watery & tastes different when you pressure cook it. 
- Adjust green chili's as needed. I used thai chili & 2 were more than enough to this curry.

Palya is a Karnataka style side dish. This curry is easy to make & taste delicious with the blend of ingredients we use in making them. 
I'm sharing Udupi brahmin style palya here. It's little different from the other palya's I make, but the taste was tempting & we loved it. I love to mix & match veggies when making palya's, but you can just go with single veggie at a time. Green beans, cabbage, carrots, cluster beans, Ivy gourds are my favorite veggies & love to make comforting palya with them. 
Enjoy this comforting no onion no garlic dish.

Atakilt Wat | Ethiopian Cabbage Curry

Atakilt Wat or Ethiopian cabbage curry is a mildly spiced curry which perfectly goes with rice & chapati or roti. This is a simple dish for busy days. If you have a hatred towards cabbage just like me, then this is one of the comforting recipes you would love & want to try out.
Atakilt Wat is basically served with injera, which is a spongy fermented bread with a unique texture to it. I served it with rice & a dollop of ghee. This curry can be customized easily according to your taste buds. Garnishing with cilantro adds a delectable flavor to the curry.
