I tried out this oil free cabbage chutney yesterday for our dinner and served along with hot steaming idlies, we loved this tangy cabbage chutney and its completely oil free, yea i didnt used even a drop of oil for making this beautiful chutney and this chutney tastes fabulous even when i served them along with curd rice..Easy breezy chutney which is completely oil free gets ready in less time as i went for microwave cooking for cabbage chunks while i dry roasted the spices in stove top..
2cups Cabbage (chopped)
3nos Dry red chillies
1tbsp Coriander seeds
1no Tamarind (blueberry size)
1tsp Ginger
1tbsp Urad dal
Salt
Take the chopped cabbage, tamarind , ginger with salt in a microwave bowl and cook for 10minutes high in microwave oven, meanwhile dry roast the coriander seeds, dry red chillies and urad dal, roast everything until a nice aroma comes out..take everything in a mixie, grind as bit coarse paste by adding water if needed..
Transfer the chutney to a bowl and enjoy as side dish with idlies, dosas or with rice..
