All Ingredients - Main Ingredients

  1. Oil 2 tbsp
  2. Cumin seeds 1 tsp
  3. Mustard seeds 1 tsp
  4. Onion 1 medium, chopped
  5. Garlic 1 head, chopped
  6. Turmeric powder 1 tsp
  7. Shredded carrots 1 packet (approx. 10-12 oz)
  8. Cabbage 1/2 medium head, chopped
  9. Salt to taste
  10. Potatoes 4-6 medium, cooked and mashed
  11. Red chili powder 1 tsp (or to taste)
  12. Coriander-cumin powder 1 tbsp
  13. Lime or lemon 1/2 to 1, juiced

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Sauté Aromatics and Spices

Heat a pan and add oil. Once hot, add cumin seeds and mustard seeds. Let them splutter. Then add chopped onion and chopped garlic. Sauté until the onions turn light pink.

Step 2: Add Turmeric and Vegetables

Add turmeric powder to the pan and mix well. Then add the shredded carrots and chopped cabbage. Mix all ingredients thoroughly.

Step 3: Cook Vegetables

Add salt to taste. Cover the pan with a lid and let the vegetables cook until soft. You may sprinkle a little water to speed up the cooking process.

Step 4: Prepare Potatoes

Cook 4-6 medium potatoes in an Instant Pot on manual for 3 minutes (or boil until tender). Once cooked, mash them roughly.

Step 5: Combine with Potatoes and Final Spices

Once the cabbage and carrots are soft, add the mashed potatoes to the pan. Sprinkle red chili powder and coriander-cumin powder over the vegetables and potatoes. Squeeze the juice of half to one lime or lemon over the mixture.

Step 6: Final Simmer and Serve

Mix all ingredients well to combine the flavors. Cover the pan with a lid and let it simmer for another 5 minutes. Taste for salt and spices, and adjust if necessary. Serve hot with your choice of grains or bread.

Pro Tips

Sprinkle a little water while cooking the vegetables to help them cook faster.

This curry stays good for 4-5 days when refrigerated.

Recipe Variations

Serve with brown rice, quinoa, naan, or other grains of your choice.
