CABBAGE SUBZI

Cabbage is an excellent source of Vitamin C and K. It provides fibre and manganese.  It is also a source of molybdenum, Vitamin B 6, potassium, thiamin (Vitamin B1) and calcium.

Cabbage juice is used in stomach ulcers. Gargle and swallo fresh cabbage juice to treat for sore throats.

We can make kootu with cabbage or stir fry subzi to serve along with rice, roti etc.  This can be used for making salads also.  My son does not like it over cooked.  If I make subzi for him, it should be crunchy.
