  • Add cumin, salt and pepper.
  • Mix well and cook for 3~4 minutes. Serve with Injera or along with rice.

Notes

  • I usually buy savoy cabbage because I like it better than green or white variety. But feel free to use any cabbage – even purple cabbage would be great in this recipe.
  • Any type of potatoes - russet, yukon or red - would work in this recipe.
  • If you don’t have fresh ginger, then use about 1 teaspoon of ground ginger.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
