This is an exceptional way to serve cabbage, and we enjoyed it. Used all the spices and wouldn't change a thing. Could use a bit less simmering time as it became dry. Thanks for posting, Sharon.

Delicious! Didn't have turmeric on hand so used curry. Used full three tablespoons of organic unsweetened coconut so wonderful coconut flavor. Went with chili powder option and it blended very nicely. Cooking time less as others have experienced. Even better next day. Thank you for sharing this winner Sharon123

Really brings out the fresh taste of cabbage! Just added a squeeze of lemon juice before serving.

Oh my, this is delicious! I love cabbage anyway but the flavor here is surprisingly complex (admittedly, I generously doubled the spices). The coconut does not stand out a lot but I could taste it. I also used just 1 Tbsp oil for sauteing, and needed to add some water to simmer it. It's really easy to eat cabbage this way! Thanks!

Wow! EVERYBODY loved this! I think the coconut got lost, tho. We loved the flavor. I used all the ingredients as suggested but only cooked it about 15 minutes total. A great dish! Thank you!
