CABBAGE MOREKUTH

This is an innovative recipe using one of the most common and liked subzi 'Cabbage'. What we usually do with cabbage is make a curry or make a dhal kuth. But this is something different and has a different taste than the usual curry.


Ingredients:

1/2 kg  White Cabbage
1 green chilli
5 Tbsp of grated fresh coconut
2 tsp raw rice
1 tsp of Jeera seeds
Curry leaves
1/2 cup of Fresh thick Yogurt
Salt to taste
Turmeric powder
Oil for Tadaka
1/4 tsp of Mustard seeds
1 tsp of coconut oil

Method:

1) Cut the White cabbage into small pieces. Allow the Cut cabbage to cook in some water, salt and turmeric powder.
2) In a cup soak the raw rice, jeera seeds for half an hr.
3) Add the soaked rice, jeera, coconut, green chilli, curry leaves and grind to a very fine paste.
4) Add the ground paste to the cooked cabbage and allow to cook for 5 mins on low flame.
5) Add the coconut oil and yogurt and switch off the flame.
6) The kuth should not be very watery. If the water seems excess, you can add some rice flour paste to it(add little water to a tsp of rice flour and mix well). The rice flour lets the mixture thicken a bit.
7) To this add the tadaka with the oil and mustard seeds.


The cabbage kuth is ready to serve. You can serve this with rice, rasam and pappad. It can be had for lunch or dinner. Please leave your comments or queries about the dish. Thank you!
