    Instructions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    1. Heat the oil:<\/strong> In a pan, heat oil over medium flame. Add mustard seeds and cumin seeds. Once they start to splutter, add dry red chilies and curry leaves (if using).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. Saut\u00e9 aromatics:<\/strong> Add sliced onions and green chilies. Saut\u00e9 for 2-3 minutes until onions turn soft and translucent.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. Add vegetables:<\/strong> Toss in the shredded cabbage and grated carrot. Mix well.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    4. Season:<\/strong> Sprinkle turmeric, red chili powder, and salt over the vegetables. Mix thoroughly so the spices coat the cabbage and carrot evenly.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    5. Cook:<\/strong> Cover the pan and cook on low-medium heat for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender but still slightly crunchy.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    6. Garnish & serve:<\/strong> Remove from heat. Garnish with freshly chopped coriander leaves and serve hot as a side dish with rice, chapati, or even as a healthy snack.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      Tips:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
        \n
      • You can add a splash of lemon juice at the end for a tangy twist.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • For a nuttier flavor, sprinkle a few roasted cashews or grated coconut before serving.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Avoid overcooking to keep the vegetables crunchy and retain nutrients.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
