I'm a sucker for a good deal and since St. Patrick's Day usually brings fantastic deals on cabbage, I'm stocked up. I also bought some wonderful kielbasa to pair with the cabbage so I could make a European Cabbage and Sausage dish. Then I started to crave a curry. So I looked at these two ingredients and decided it's time they met my curry spice cabinet. I didn't really have a plan, but I pulled out my favorite curry tricks and I was so happy. We ate this spicy curry that doubles as a meat dish and a side dish in one with some mild lentils and rice.
Ingredients:
1 small head of cabbage sliced(white leaves)
1lb of you favorite kielbasa (beef, turkey etc...)
1 medium onion sliced
2 green chilies sliced (jalapeno or serrano)
1/2 Tbs of grated ginger
2-3 cloves of garlic grated
1tsp of cumin seeds
1/2 tsp of fennugreek seeds
1/2 tsp of turmeric
1 small cinnamon stick
10-15 curry leaves
red chili flakes to taste
red chili powder (ground chilies) to taste if you want it extra spicy
1/2 Tbs of curry powder
1cup of coconut milk
salt to taste
1/2 water (if needed)
2 Tbs of canola oil
Directions:

Heat oil in a large pan on high heat. Add sliced kielbasa sausage and brown well then remove out of pan. Add curry leaves to remaining hot oil. Then add cabbage, onion, green chili and cinnamon stick. Stir fry well for a few minutes.

Then add salt to taste, cumin seeds, chili flakes, ginger and garlic. Stir fry for another 2-3 minutes. Next add the turmeric, curry powder and chili powder (if you want it spicy) to the pan. Stir fry for another few minutes.

Add the cooked kielbasa back into the pan and one cup of coconut milk. If you need more liquid add 1/2 cup of water. Allow the ingredients to come to a boil and finish cooking the cabbage. Taste and re-season with salt if necessary. The dish is done. Enjoy.

I bought cabbage today so all I need is the kielbasa and I'll have a dish that looks this good!
ReplyDeleteBeing Ukrainian, I love kielbasa and cabbage. Throw some curry flavours in the mix and wow - I AM EXCITED - I seriously want to try this. I have some of my homemade kielbasa in the freezer and now it is spoken for. :)
ReplyDeleteyum! my mom used to make this for me all the time minus the curry twist which sounds amazing! I am def going to have to tell her about this...thanks for sharing!!!
ReplyDeleteI love kielbasa and cabbage....you've taken it to another level though and I'm loving it. This looks fantastic. I love it when you start pulling things out of your cabinets!
ReplyDeleteThe flavor is a little different but my mom stir fries cabbage and sausage together and I really love that. I've never tried kielbasa before but I can imagine this is very delicious. The amount of green chilies will make me drink a gallon of water. Hee hee. But I can eat "mild" version!
ReplyDeleteOoh, this looks delicious--love the addition of curry to liven up the dish!
ReplyDeleteYum,this look so, so good!
ReplyDeleteWow, this must be the most uncommon curry I've seen in a while! Somehow I can just imagine it working beautifully, though :) Lovely idea, Ramona!

Ramona, only you could take cabage and kielbasa and think, "Curry!" That looks great! My husband loves cabbage and kielbasa and I love curry, I smell another dinner compromise :)
ReplyDeleteGreat way to spice up the boring cabbage. Lovely recipe Ramona.
ReplyDeleteI've had cabbage and kielbasa together before, but never in a curry. I'm going to have to borrow some of your recipes soon. My daughter-in-law's mother is visiting soon and I want to make a curry for her.
ReplyDeleteYum!!! Ramona, I love cabbage, especially with Curry and of course the kielbasa. Beautiful pictures.
