Pattaghobhi/ Bandhgobhi - matar ki sabzi (cabbage-peas veg)

This is an easy and quick recipe. Pretty much a staple in our household.

Serves 2
Ingredients:

1. Cabbage - Chopped, 1 and 1/2 cup
2. Peas- 1/2 cup (I used baby peas)
3. Green chilies- 2, chopped finely
4. Tomato- chopped, 1 medium sized.
5. Turmeric Powder (Haldi) -1/4 tsp
6. Mustard seeds (rai)- 1/2 tsp
7. Oil- 1 tbsp
8. Dhaniya powder (powdered coriander seeds)-1/2tsp
9. Salt to taste
10. Garam masala (optional)- 1/4 tsp
11. Amchoor (dried mango powder)-1/4 tsp

Method:

• Heat water in a pan. Blanch the chopped cabbage in the water. Drain and keep aside.
• Heat oil in a wok (Kadhai).
• Add mustard seeds. When they start to splutter, add green chilies and turmeric powder.
• Follow by adding dhaniya powder.
• Add the cabbage and turn to coat well with the spices. Add salt. Cook for a minute or so.
• Add tomatoes and peas. Mix well, cover and let it cook on a slow flame for a few minutes.
• Add garam masala , mix, cover and cook again for a few min.
• Turn off the flame and sprinkle amchoor . Mix and cover for a few minutes. 
• Garnish with Coriander leaves if you wish.
• Serve hot or cold as a side.

Since I used baby peas, it took less time to cook. If you are using fresh peas, then boil them in salted water for a while before adding them to the vegetable. 

Enjoy!
