Ingredients
 
 

  • 500 grams green cabbage sliced
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon whole cumin seeds
  • ½ teaspoon ground turmeric
  • 1 teaspoon salt (plus more, to taste)
  • 1 tablespoon butter, oil, or ghee

Instructions
 

  • Slice the cabbage, mince the garlic, and set them aside.
  • Heat a large sauté pan over medium heat and add the oil
  • Once the oil is hot, add the whole cumin seeds and stir for 30 seconds or until the kitchen starts to smell like toasted cumin seeds.
  • Add the cabbage, garlic, and salt, and cook, while stirring, for 10-15 minutes. You want the mixture to be steaming rather than frying, so if the pan starts to look dry, add a splash of water. Keep the lid on in between stirring to help retain the moisture.
  • Once the cabbage is tender, add the ground turmeric, and stir. Taste for seasoning, and add more salt if needed. If you like it spicy, you can also add some hot red pepper flakes or chili pepper. Enjoy!
