Cabbage Coconut Kootu is a traditional South Indian dish known for its comforting flavors and nutritional richness. This hearty stew combines shredded cabbage with creamy ground coconut, split yellow lentils (moong dal), and a fragrant blend of spices including turmeric, cumin, and curry leaves. Originating from Tamil Nadu cuisine, kootu is a staple in balanced vegetarian meals. Rich in fiber from cabbage and plant-based protein from lentils, this dish supports digestion and overall gut health. Coconut adds a dose of healthy fats and lends a silky texture. Limited use of oil and absence of heavy cream or cheese makes it a heart-healthy choice. However, moderation is recommended due to the saturated fats present in coconut. Often served with steamed rice, Cabbage Coconut Kootu is a flavorful way to incorporate vegetables into your diet while enjoying the wholesomeness of South Indian culinary traditions.
