GF Vegan Cabbage Potato Sabji (Indian Curried Vegetables)

November 19, 2020
I was about to cook my favorite Hungarian dish, potato paprikás (you can find the recipe here on PD for it) when I saw I had a small head of cabbage going to expire. Just then I remembered this Sabji I used to eat in Rishikesh and although I did not remember every detail of the recipe, but this version resembled the Indian one quite well.

It's going to satisfy your carb cravings (hello, serotonin!) but you'll also benefit of the immune strengthening effects of the spices and the vitamins and minerals of the cabbage.
