Instructions
- Step 1 : Prepare the Spice Powder
- In a heavy bottomed pan, add red chilies, coriander seeds, a teaspoon of cumin seeds, fenugreek seeds, and mustard seeds. Dry roast on low heat for 5 minutes.
- Next add the urad dal and chana dal and dry roast till they turn light golden.
- Now add the sesame seeds and grated coconut and roast till they turn golden brown.
- Turn off the heat. Once all the roasted ingredients are cooled, transfer them to a dry blender or food processor and coarsely grind them into a powder. The spice powder is ready. Keep it aside.
- Step 2 : Cook the cabbage
- Heat a pan. Add two teaspoon oil into it. When the oil is slightly heated, add asafetida and half a teaspoon of cumin seeds.
- When the seeds splutter, add the cabbage and the tomatoes, then add half a teaspoon of turmeric powder, red chilly powder and pinch of salt.
- Cover the pan with the lid and let the cabbage cook, on a low-medium flame, till it is fully baked . You can stir and mix in between. Generally it takes20-30 minutes for the cabbage to cook.
- When the cabbage is done, remove the lid. Increase the heat to medium high and saute for 5-7 minutes so that the excess water evaporates. Keep it aside.
- Step 3: Prepare the tempering and assemble
- Now in another pan prepare tempering using oil and all other ingredients listed under tempering as follows - When the oil is hot, add the mustard seeds.
- When the seeds splutter, add the remaining ingredients( roasted chana dal, peanuts, curry leaf powder, ginger and green chillies). Saute at low medium heat for 2-3 minutes.
- Add the cooked rice, and then the cooked cabbage. Add in 2 tablespoons of prepared spice powder. Stir and mix at medium high heat for 2-3 minutes till the rice and the cabbage are well combined and all the spice powder are mixed together.
- Turn off the heat. Now add a tablespoon of fresh lemon juice. Stir and mix gently. Cover and let it rest for 2-3 minutes. As the rice is warm, it absorbs all the spices and enhances the flavor and aroma of the dish.
