Cabbage Kootan, also called as Cabbage Sambar. A very tasty mix for hot steaming rice. Normally cooked cabbage has a pungent smell. Whenever we pack Cabbage Poriyal or Kootu in a lunch box, the smell will be locked inside and when we open during the lunch, we can’t stand the smell. Because of this, I avoid giving cabbage for kids. But believe me, there are few recipes with cabbage which has a strong flavor that overcomes the pungent smell of the cabbage.
Cabbage Rice, Cabbage Fry, Cabbage Channa Dry Curry Recipe | Chole Patta Gobhi Curry Recipe are few dishes which will make us love cabbage more. This cabbage kootan is another yummy recipe which will make us and also kids love Cabbage. My Grandmother makes this Cabbage kootan very frequently. In their generation, most of the household in India has a minimum of 5 members, so they women has to cook more food. This Cabbage Kootan is one of the recipe which easily make more quantity. Once, I asked my grandma why she was not using Sambar Powder and grind the spices every time. She explained me that grinding the spice powder freshly makes the dish more tastier and also we will get more quantity than using Sambar Powder.
We can also use Avarakkai (Broad Beans) instead of cabbage and make this sambar. Try this version of Cabbage Kootan and share your comments!
