Steps:
- Heat oil in a large wok over high heat. When the oil begins to smoke, add the mustard seeds, covering the wok with a lid or spatter screen. After the seeds stop sputtering, add the cabbage. Add the turmeric, garlic, salt and cayenne and toss well.
- Reduce the heat to medium and stir occasionally until crisp-tender. (The original recipe suggests you cover and steam the cabbage for 5 minutes but I don't have a cover so just mixed it around for 5 to 10 minutes.) Serve hot.

INDIAN FRIED CABBAGE
Warming Indian spices kick up cabbage a few notches for a quick, easy, and healthy side dish. I like to serve this with garlic naan bread, placing a bit of cabbage between the naan, to make a sandwich.

STIR-FRIED CABBAGE WITH CUMIN SEEDS
Cabbage is rarely a side dish on its own, but it is in this recipe. It takes on some Indian flavor with caraway seeds and the garam masala, and it maintains its crunch with the quick heat of the stir fry. It is excellent with lamb.

Steps:
- Trim outer leaves off cabbage. Cut cabbage in half lengthwise. Cut out and discard core, and cut crosswise into long, thin shreds. (A bread knife is good for this.)
- Heat half the oil in a wide skillet over high heat. When hot, add half the cumin and half the sesame seeds. When sesame seeds begin to pop add half the onions, and cook, stirring often, until golden, about 5 minutes. Add half the cabbage, and cook, stirring often, until wilted and lightly browned but not cooked through, about 5 minutes more. Remove to a bowl, and repeat with remaining oil, cumin and sesame seeds, onion and cabbage. (Recipe can be made to this point up to 2 hours in advance and held at room temperature.)
- Just before serving return all the cabbage-onion mixture to pan over medium heat. Add salt and cayenne, and cook, stirring, until cabbage is soft and sweet, about 7 minutes more. Stir in lemon juice and garam masala, and serve.

Tips:
- Choose the right cabbage: Look for firm, compact heads of cabbage with tightly packed leaves. Avoid heads that are wilted, have brown spots, or feel lightweight.
- Shred the cabbage thinly: This will help it cook evenly and quickly. You can use a sharp knife or a mandoline to shred the cabbage.
- Use a large skillet or wok: This will give the cabbage plenty of room to cook without overcrowding.
- Heat the oil over medium-high heat: This will help the cabbage sear and brown quickly.
- Stir the cabbage frequently: This will prevent it from sticking to the pan and burning.
- Add the spices and seasonings early: This will allow them to infuse the cabbage with flavor as it cooks.
- Cook the cabbage until it is tender-crisp: This should take about 5-7 minutes. Do not overcook the cabbage, or it will become mushy.
- Serve the cabbage hot: Fried cabbage is best served immediately after it is cooked. It can be enjoyed on its own or as a side dish with grilled meats, fish, or tofu.
Conclusion:
Fried cabbage is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as a main course or a side dish. It is a healthy and affordable way to get your daily dose of vegetables. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make a delicious and satisfying meal that the whole family will enjoy.
