Cabbage Thoran is a delicious and simple South Indian dish, typically from Kerala, made with shredded cabbage, coconut, and spices. Here's a basic recipe:
Ingredients:
* 2 cups shredded cabbage
* 1/4 cup grated coconut
* 2 green chilies, slit
* 1/4 teaspoon turmeric powder
* 1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds
* 1/4 teaspoon mustard seeds
* 1 sprig curry leaves
* 1 tablespoon coconut oil
* Salt to taste
Instructions:
* Grind the coconut: In a blender, grind together the grated coconut, green chilies, and turmeric powder to a coarse paste.
* Heat the oil: Heat the coconut oil in a pan over medium heat. Once hot, add the mustard seeds and let them splutter. Then add the cumin seeds and curry leaves and saute for a few seconds.
* Add the cabbage: Add the shredded cabbage to the pan and stir-fry for a few minutes until it softens slightly.
* Add the coconut paste: Add the ground coconut paste to the cabbage and mix well. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage is tender and the flavors have combined.
* Season and serve: Season with salt to taste and serve hot with rice or roti.
Tips:
* For a richer flavor, you can add a pinch of grated ginger to the coconut paste.
* You can adjust the amount of green chilies according to your spice preference.
* If you don't have coconut oil, you can use vegetable oil or ghee.
* Cabbage Thoran can be made vegan by omitting the ghee.
