Cabbage Palya | coconut Mustard Cabbage curry

SwayamPaaka, September 29, 2019September 29, 2019

Cabbage palya or curry is always an ignored dish. This is one of a kind curry which my mother makes it . Cabbage curry goes very well with rice, rotis and rotti. You can prepare the cabbage rice using this curry and it is perfect lunchbox rice item. This is more like kayi saasive/ coconut mustard palya. This is gluten free, vegan and NO ONION! and No Garlic side-dish.
Research say cabbage when steam cooked helps to reduce the cholesterol. Also rich in Vitamin K, and sulphur.
