Best Cabbage Thoran

 Without much ado, I want to post some recipes from the web here that we have ended up using a lot. This is the first of such recipes. Adding here for easy reference. 

This is an unbelievably yummy 'thoran'. It gets its taste from marinating the veggie before cooking. Yup, you heard that right, veggies can be marinated! Another charming feature is the uber short cooking time. Shouldn't take more than 4-5 minutes! Here you go.

In The Mix

Mix 1

cabbage - 1 head, washed and sliced

shallots - 2, peeled and sliced round

green chili - 2, sliced round

curry leaves - 2 sprigs

salt - to taste

Mix 2

coconut oil - 3 tbsp

mustard - 1 tsp

curry leaves - 2 sprigs

dry red chili  - 2 halved 

grated coconut - 1/2 to 1 cup


How To Do

Prepare all of the Mix 1 ingredients and mix well by squeezing well together.

Set aside to marinate for at least 30 min.

On a crunch, you can prepare Mix1 with all except the salt the day before and keep in the fridge overnight and cook the next day after mixing with salt first.

Heat oil in large pan. Break mustard once oil heats up and the add cumin.

Mix in curry leaves and dry red chili and now add Mix1.

Cook uncovered on medium to high heat for 1-2 min, then stir together.

Cook for another minute, then add the coconut and mix well.

Gather the mix together in pan and cook for 1-2min.

Now remove from heat and keep covered for 5-10 minutes.

Enjoy!!
