Bund Gobi Aur Matar-India

 

1 small head green cabbage

1 1/4 cup frozen peas

1/4 cup vegetable oil

2 teaspoons whole cumin seeds

2 bay leaves

1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric

1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

1 fresh hot green chili, finely chopped

3/4 teaspoon salt

3/4 teaspoon sugar

1/4 teaspoon garam masala

 

Core the cabbage and slice into fine long shreds.

Put the peas in a strainer and hold them under running water until they

separate.

Preheat the oil over medium-high heat in a large heavy skillet. When hot add the

cumin seeds and bay leaves, cooking for just a few seconds. Quickly add the

cabbage and peas, stirring to mix well. Add the turmeric and cayenne, mixing

well. Cover and reduce heat to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes, or until

vegetables are crisp-tender.

Add the green chili, salt and sugar, stir to mix; cover and cook an additional 2

minutes. Remove from heat, add the garam masala, stir gently to mix and serve.

Makes 4 to 6 servings.
