For 4 servings
Begin by preparing all your vegetables. Wash the cabbage thoroughly and shred it finely. Finely chop the onion and tomatoes. Grate the ginger, mince the garlic, and slit the green chilies. Keep everything ready.
Heat oil in a wide pan or kadai over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add the cumin seeds and let them splutter for about 30 seconds. Add the asafoetida and sauté for a few seconds.
Add the finely chopped onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until it turns soft and translucent. Then, add the grated ginger, minced garlic, and slit green chilies. Sauté for another minute until the raw aroma disappears.
Add the chopped tomatoes along with the spice powders: turmeric powder, coriander powder, and salt. Mix well and cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes break down and become mushy, and you see oil separating from the masala.
Now, add the shredded cabbage and green peas to the pan. Stir everything together for 2-3 minutes to ensure the cabbage is well-coated with the masala.
Cover the pan with a lid and reduce the heat to low. Let the cabbage cook in its own moisture for 10-12 minutes, or until it is tender but still has a slight crunch. Stir once or twice in between to prevent it from sticking to the bottom.
Uncover the pan, add the garam masala, and mix gently. Cook for one more minute to allow the flavors to meld. Garnish with freshly chopped coriander leaves. Serve hot with roti, paratha, or as a side with dal and rice.
