Cabbage and Potato Fry

"An Indianised way to cook cabbage, and our favorite preparation of the vegetable. If you have a grinder, take the trouble to roast and grind the coriander seeds - the freshly roasted flavor is worth the effort."

  1. I love this type of food - very easy to put together and can add or delete ingredients to your taste and still come out delicious. I added minced garlic along with onion and instead of coconut (did not have), I added lightly beaten egg and covered the pan the last 2-3 minutes without mixing. Came out perfectly. The taste is excellent and so nutritious. Thank you eatrealfood for posting this - it's a keeper! Made for Asian Forum's India tag game March 2010.
     
  2. Really tasty dish. I didn't have the whole seeds, so just used the powdered versions instead. Thanks! :)
     
  3. This was a very delicious and simple recipe! The flavors worked really well together and the smell is amazing!
     
  4. This was very good. Didnt have the seed spices on hand so I fried up the ground cumin and mustard in the oil until they were slightly darker and fragrant. Didnt have coconut so I used s splash of coconut milk. We enjoyed this, leftovers were great too!
     
  5. This dish was very good. I did follow another reviewer's advice and doubled the spices, and added a little cayenne. I also squeezed a little lemon over it at the table. Yum!
