Cabbage ,most of the people hates this healthy vegetable.Srikanth and me are not exceptional. But I want to include this veggie some how in our cuisine list as Cabbage is an excellent source of vitamin C.Cabbage can also be included in dieting programs, as it is a low calorie food.The present recipe is from my friend Smitha's collection of recipes bookmarked from here.
