Coconut Curry Cabbage

[underused]

Our cabbages are ripe so I went looking for some new recipes. I searched for curry specifically because it's a flavour I love and I don't cook with it nearly enough. I also wanted something dead easy, because I'm super duper lazy.

I think I found a winner.

INGREDIENTS

1 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp butter
1 sm yellow onion, thinly sliced
1 c julienned carrots
1 clove garlic, minced
1 head cabbage, sliced
1/2 c fresh shredded coconut
2 tbsp curry powder
3/4 c coconut milk
salt and pepper to taste

TOP WITH

1/4 c diced fresh tomato
1/4 c chopped green onions
1/4 c chopped cilantro


DIRECTIONS

Heat butter and oil in a large skillet until hot. Stir fry the onion, carrot, and garlic until the onion begins to soften, about 1 minute.

Add the cabbage, coconut, and curry powder; stir fry for 2 more minutes.

Reduce heat to medium-low; pour in the coconut milk, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Cover, and cook to desired doneness.

To serve, sprinkle with tomato, green onions, and cilantro.

Agreed. My verdict is that julienned carrots are near impossible to achieve with just a knife, unless you have boatloads of patience and are ambivalent about possessing all of your fingertips (which I am not, given that I'm already short one). Slicer it is!

Ha, I totally forgot about your poor finger. Yes, a slicer is best. ☺
