Crunchy grilled cabbage sandwiches


What you need: Serves 3-4
8 slices bread (white, wheat or any bread of your choice)
2 tablespoons butter, divided3 cups shredded or chopped cabbage

For the Cabbage filling:
2 cups finely grated fresh cabbage
2 green hot chilies finely chopped
1 cup onions or scallions/green onions chopped
1 cup green peppers/capsicum finely chopped
¼ tsp turmeric
¼ tsp cumin powder
Salt to taste
¼ tsp mustard seeds
A few curry leaves
2 tsp olive oil


Heat a large saucepan on medium-high. Add in the oil, mustard seeds, and chilies and curry leaves, toss in the onions and peppers as they splutter. Add the cabbage and stir fry for 5 minutes. Let the cabbage stay crisp and not get soft. Add in the cumin powder, turmeric and salt. Set aside.

Preheat a skillet or sandwich toaster, generously butter one side of a slice of bread. Place bread butter-side-down onto skillet bottom, top it with the cabbage filling, butter a second slice of bread on one side and place butter-side-up on top of the sandwich. Grill until lightly browned on both sides; serve it with some ketchup or mustard sauce. Enjoy!
