Cabbage Potato kootu is one of my favourite side dishes for Pulikuzhambu. Along with cabbage, potatoes, moong dal and coconut paste are also added in this kootu. People generally eat stir fry with cabbage and many people don't know this yummy and healthy kootu with cabbage. I felt that there is no raw smell of the cabbage in kootu when compared with stir fry. This kootu goes well with sambar, rasam , pulikuzhambu , karakuzhambu and tomato rice. In addition to potatoes and moong dal, you can also include cooked chickpeas or green peas. Prolonged cooking the cabbage on high temperature will result in losing the beautiful colour. Hence it is important to cook the cabbage on medium heat with correct time. If you are planning to cook in a pressure cooker or pan, cook for 1 whistle on medium heat and slowly release the pressure to maintain the colour and texture of the cabbage. Now let's see how to prepare this Cabbage Potato kootu with step by step instructions.
