CABBAGE CURRY | PATTA GOBI SABZI | INDIAN-STYLE CABBAGE STIR-FRY

Steps:

• Heat a pan or kadai and add the ghee. After about 30 seconds or so, add the cumin seeds and asafoetida. Let it sizzle slightly.
• Then reduce the heat to low and add the red chili powder, coriander powder, and turmeric powder. Roast it slightly for about 30 seconds. Make sure the heat is low.
• Now add 2 tbsps of water and mix the spices thoroughly and cook for 30 more seconds.
• At this stage, add the chopped cabbage and salt. Mix thoroughly and make sure the spices and the cabbage are well combined.
• Add one tbsp of water on top and cover and cook for 5 minutes over medium heat.
• Now remove the lid and mix. You will notice some water in the curry, and that's fine. Cook for five to seven more minutes or until the moisture is all absorbed. While cooking, make sure to scrape the bottom of the pan.
• Once the moisture is all absorbed or when the cabbage is soft and tender, add the cilantro and mix it once. And then turn off the heat.
• VVK TIP - Do not cover the cabbage with a lid entirely once the cooking is complete. Let it cool for 10 minutes and then cover it with a lid or partially cover it. Due to the evaporation and condensation process, the cabbage will become soggy.
