Ingredients

• 1 medium head Green cabbage
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 1 large, finely chopped Onion
• 2 medium, chopped Tomato
• 3 minced Garlic cloves
• 1 inch piece, grated Ginger
• 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
• 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
• 1 teaspoon Cumin powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Red chili powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Garam masala
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 cup Water
• 2 tablespoons, chopped Cilantro
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice

Directions

Step 1

Cut the green cabbage into quarters, remove the core, and slice the leaves into thin strips.

Step 2

Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.

Step 3

Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the pan and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Step 4

Stir in the chopped tomatoes and cook for 3-4 minutes until they start to soften.

Step 5

Add the turmeric, coriander, cumin, red chili powder, and garam masala to the pan. Mix well and cook for another 2 minutes to allow the spices to bloom.

Step 6

Add the sliced cabbage to the pan. Mix well to coat the cabbage with the spice mixture.

Step 7

Pour in the water, sprinkle with salt and black pepper, and stir to combine everything evenly.

Step 8

Cover the pan with a lid and let the curry simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the cabbage is tender, stirring occasionally.

Step 9

Once the cabbage is cooked through, sprinkle the chopped cilantro over the curry and drizzle with lemon juice.

Step 10

Stir well and adjust seasoning as necessary. Allow the curry to rest for a few minutes off the heat before serving.

Step 11

Serve warm, garnished with additional cilantro if desired. This curry pairs well with steamed rice or flatbreads.
