Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 medium head Green cabbage
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 medium, finely chopped Onion
- 3 cloves, minced Garlic
- 2 teaspoons Curry powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground turmeric
- 1 cup Vegetable stock
- 0.5 cup Heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons, chopped (optional, for garnish) Fresh cilantro
Instructions
Remove the outer leaves of the cabbage and cut it in half. Remove the core and slice the cabbage into thin strips.
Heat a large skillet or pan over medium heat and melt the butter.
Add the chopped onion to the pan and sauté for 3-4 minutes until soft and transparent.
Stir in the minced garlic, curry powder, and turmeric, and cook for 1 minute, allowing the spices to release their aroma.
Add the sliced cabbage to the pan and toss to coat evenly in the spice mixture.
Pour in the vegetable stock, cover the pan, and let the cabbage steam for about 7-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it becomes tender but not mushy.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the heavy cream. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Let the mixture simmer for 2-3 minutes to thicken slightly and coat the cabbage.
Remove the pan from the heat and garnish with freshly chopped cilantro if desired.
Serve warm as a side dish or over rice for a comforting meal.
