• Set the Instant Pot to saute mode and heat oil. Add cumin seeds and allow them to sizzle. Turn Saute off. Add turmeric, red chili powder, and cabbage. Add salt and mix. Add water and layer the soaked dal on top. NOT: Do not mix as the dal can stick to the bottom of the pot.

• In a large nonstick pan heat oil. Add cumin seeds and allow them to sizzle. Add turmeric, red chili powder and cabbage, salt, and soaked mung dal. Mix well and cook covered with the lid on for 5 minutes on medium heat
• After 5 minutes taste and if the texture is good for you, turn the heat off and enjoy the cabbage. If you like it cooked soft, mix well and cook covered for another 5 minutes

SPICY FRIED CABBAGE

Steps:

• Shred cabbage coarsely. Heat oil in a large saucepan and fry the onion and chillies until soft. Add garlic and ginger and fry, stirring until slightly caramerlized (if using red cabbage, you will notice a caramelization, but it won't be as distinct. You'll want the cabbage still slightly firm).
• Add turmeric and cabbage, fry and toss cabbage in the mixture, then cover and cook over low heat for 10-15 minutes or until cabbage is tender but not mushy.
• Sprinkle with salt and mix well; then add coconut and stir to mix thoroughly. If there is any liquid in the bottom of pan, leave cover off and stir over medium heat until all the liquid is absorbed.
