Cabbage Curry with Peas

Heat up oil. I prefer mustard oil. Add the potato cubes into it. After the pieces turn golden, add the seasoning: bay leaves, cumin seeds, sliced fresh green chilli, crushed garlic, curshed ginger. This time I didn't have bay leaves and ginger. Add the shredded cabbage immediately. Sir and let it cook.

Above is how the cabbage should be cut. This is the tedious task. I cut it by hand. The rest of the cooking process is simple. Now add turmeric paste and cumin-coriander paste. Stir and mix. Add salt. Cabbage will start releasing water. Add grated tomato and garlic. (I didn't add the garlic in the seasoning but here. )

Mix and add the peas, cover and cook on a low flame. You need to check in between and ensure it has enough water in it and doesn't burn; stir if required. Do this until thoroughly cooked.
