Ingredients Serving: 4

  1. Split red gram (arhar dal) 1cup / 160 gm
  2. Cabbage (bandh gobi), chopped 300 gm
  3. Dry red chillies (sookhi lal mirch) 6
  4. Salt to taste or 2 tsp / 8gm
  5. Asafoetida (hing) a pinch
  6. Turmeric (haldi) powder ¼ tsp
  7. Refined oil 6 tbsp / 90 ml
  8. Mustard seeds (rai) ¼ tsp

Instructions

  1. Soak the split red gram in hot water for 25-30 minutes. Drain and grind coarsely with the dry red chillies, salt, asafoetida, and turmeric powder.
  2. Steam cook the red gram paste (2-3 whistles in a pressure cooker). Remove and crumble it with your fingers or a ladle.
  3. Cook the cabbage separately (or you could steam cook this along with the red gram paste).
  4. Heat the oil in a pan; saute the mustard seeds till the seeds start spluttering. Add the crumbled mixture and the cooked cabbage.
  5. Stir-fry till the mixture is to your liking (some like it really fried while others like it soft for it dries with extra frying).
