Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoon Canola Oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon Indian Mustard Seed
  • pinch Asafoetida
  • 1/4 teaspoon Turmeric
  • 5 cups Cabbage thinly sliced
  • 2 Carrot large, cut julienne
  • 1 Serrano Pepper split and seeded
  • Salt to taste
  • 1 teaspoon Coriander Powder

Instructions
 

  • In a large non-stick pan, heat the oil over medium to high heat. Add the mustard seeds. Once they start to pop, immediately add the asofoetida and turmeric.
  • After a few seconds, add the cabbage, carrot and Serrano halves.
  • Mix well to coat all the cabbage with the oil. Lower the heat to medium low.
  • As it cooks, add the salt and coriander powder. Cook until the cabbage is as soft or crunchy as preferred.

Notes

  • I prefer to use Savoy cabbage because I like the taste better.
  • I use the seeded chili halves and remove them after cooking because my family prefers a mild level of heat. If you like it spicy, chop up the whole Serrano and add it in.
  • Be sure to add the cabbage quickly after the spices so the mustard seeds do not burn.
  • Asafoetida is also known as Hing and can be found online and in Indian or Hispanic specialty ingredient sections and stores.
