Addition of any citric element like lemon juice or vinegar can help it to retain its original colour. Red cabbage recipes are mostly accompanied with seasonal roasts in Christmas in the UK. But now a days, variety of Indian vegetarian recipes are also contrived with this colourful fleshy vegetable.

Honestly, I have never tried or tasted any red cabbage dish until I come down to the UK. After coming here, I have seen the craze and availability of red cabbages. But in India, white cabbage, I mean regular cabbages are much more popular as compared to red cabbages. Though now a days red cabbages are easily available in India especially in winter season but still it’s a secondary choice of vegetable.
First time, I tasted any red cabbage recipe was coleslaw in one of my European friend’s place and I liked its taste. Since then I never held myself back to experiment with this vegetable in my kitchen.
So far, I have prepared many coleslaw recipes, soups and Braised Red Cabbage recipe with red cabbage. But still, red cabbage recipe Indian inspires me a lot to prepare something new and out of the box. Red cabbage curry or red cabbage sabzi is one of them.

How to cook Red Cabbage?
For the red cabbage curry, first I have shredded the red Cabbage. I have shredded the red Cabbage with knife, but you can use food processor to reduce the preparation time. After cutting the red Cabbage, I have taken them in a colander and washed them nicely.
Then I have cut and cleaned them with other vegetables for the recipe. In this preparation, other than red cabbage, I have also used potato chunks, sliced onions. chopped garlic, ginger paste, diced bell peppers, tomatoes and chopped coriander leaves.
First, I have tempered whole spices – cumin seeds, dry red chillies, cinnamon stick, cardamom, cloves, bay leaf in oil and added chopped garlic into the pan.
Then I have cooked the sliced onion and ginger paste for some time before adding the potato chunks into it. After that, I have added the shredded red cabbage into the pan and cooked it in low flame, with lid on, until it reduced its volume to half.
Then I have added tomatoes and bell peppers into the curry and cooked it slowly until all the veggies get tender.
To flavour up the red cabbage curry, I have used cumin powder, coriander powder, garam masala powder and black pepper powder other than whole spices.
I prefer less heaty red cabbage curry. So, I have skipped green chillies. If you like spicy food, then you can add chillies according to your preferred taste.
To retain the colour of the red cabbage curry, I have added lemon juice at the final stage of cooking and mixed it evenly.
