Cabbage Bake

Print

Ingredients

  • 3 cups finely shredded cabbage
  • 1 1/2 cups gram flour (kadalai maavu)
  • 1/2 cup buttermilk, plus more as needed
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
  • 1 pinch asafetida
  • 1 medium green chile, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon red chile powder
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1 (2-inch) piece ginger, grated
  • 1 small handful chopped fresh cilantro
  • 2/3 cup vegetable oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish

  2. In a large bowl, mix together cabbage, gram flour, and oil and let sit 5 minutes. Add buttermilk and all of the spices (save for the fresh cilantro), and mix well. If mixture is too thick, add water as needed. Batter should have the pourable consistency of cornbread batter.

  3. Bake 45 minutes, or until cabbage and flour are cooked through. Let rest, cut into squares, and garnish with chopped fresh cilantro. No condiments required—though you can serve this with cilantro chutney if you'd like.
