Cabbage Stirfry / Muttaikose Poriyal is a South Indian side dish recipe. This is a Dry style recipe generally served with Rasam (Pepper Water) or Puli Kulambu (Tamarind flavoured Gravy). Sometimes chopping cabbage by hand is a messy job, A very good alternate is using a food processor or a Grater. I have grated the Cabbage in the recipe below. Cabbage Poriyal / Cabbage Stir Fry is served with hot steamed rice and any strong flavored gravy like Puli Kulambu / Tamarind Gravy.

Cabbage is filled with nutrients and fibre. This recipe is with cabbage and split moong dal, so weight watchers this recipe is for you.
