Preparation

  1. 1

    Dice the potatoes into small 1 cm cubes and shred the cabbage into bite-sized ribbons.

    Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat, add diced onions and potatoes, and fry for 4 minutes until lightly browned.

  3. 3

    Add minced garlic, grated ginger, and turmeric, stirring continuously for 1 minute.

  4. 4

    Fold in shredded cabbage and salt, tossing to coat in the golden spiced oil.

    Cover the skillet with a tight lid, reduce heat to medium-low, and steam-sauté for 6 to 7 minutes until potatoes and cabbage are fork-tender.
