Purple Cabbage Rice - Blogging Marathon Day 4

Mar 8, 2011 ยท Modified: Apr 26, 2025 by Priya_Srinivasan ยท

Sharing is caring!

I have always used Cabbage to make Kootu or plain curry with Grated Coconut and green chillies. Never tried them as Rice Mix.  Once Saw Nithya's Purple Cabbage Rice and Fell in love with that Color. Came across a Cabbage Rice (Normal Green Cabbage)recipe in Mallika Badrinath's CookBook, made it using Purple Cabbage for today's Lunch!!! Tasted so Good and though I didnt get the color like Nithya, it was fine.  Surprise your fellow's with this Delicious, Colorful Rice, if they don't find this Nutritious Veggie Interesting!!!!



Ingredients
1 cup Rice, Cooked
1 cup Purple Cabbage, Shredded/Finely Chopped (Green Cabbage can also be used)
2 Medium Onions
3 tablespoon Oil
Salt to taste

Grind Together
ยผ Cup freshly grated Coconut
2 tablespoon Roasted Gram dal
8 - 10nos  Green Chillies
ยฝ inch Ginger
1 bunch Coriander leaves

For Seasoning
ยฝ teaspoon Mustard
ยฝ teaspoon cumin Seeds
2 nos Red Chillies
1 teaspoon Gram dal (Optional)
4-5 nos Cashews (optional)

Method

Grind the Masala to a fine paste using minimum water.  Heat Oil, add the seasoning ingredients one by one.  Add finely chopped onions and fry till crisp. Add Shredded/Finely Chopped Cabbage and fry till cooked.  Add the grounded masala and fry till nice aroma arises.  Add Rice and Salt and fry in a high flame for few minutes.  Garnish with Coriander leaves.
