Ingredients

  • 1 Tablespoon Oil
  • 1 teaspoon Mustard seeds
  • 4-5 green Chilies slit lengthwise
  • 4 cups Cabbage finely shredded
  • 1 medium size Carrot grated
  • Salt to taste
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1 to 2 teaspoons lemon juice
  • Generous amount of finely chopped coriander

Instructions

  • Heat oil in a pan over medium heat.
  • Add mustard seeds once the oil is hot enough.
  • When they splutter, add green chillies and fry for few seconds and the add cabbage, carrot and required salt. If you want to include sugar, add now.
  • Sir well and sauté for about 3 to 4 minutes over low heat. The key point here is to keep the cabbage crunchy.
  • Turn off the heat and squeeze in some lime juice according to your taste.
  • Garnish with coriander and serve with papdi, gathiya, roti, Rotla, Bhakri or just enjoy it like a salad.

Notes

1. Adjust green chillies to your taste.
2. Do not overcook this, If it cooks even a little bit more, the cabbage will leave the moisture and will turn soggy/soft. We want the crunchiness from it.
3. You can add a pinch of turmeric if you like.
