The inspiration for this pointed cabbage stir-fry recipe comes from the Bengali dish Bandhakopi Torkari<\/a>, which is a simple stir-fried cabbage side dish, made with minimal spices. And by minimal, that doesn\u2019t mean it isn\u2019t still big on flavor! Mine of course is a little different. Mustard seeds and turmeric remained, but there is the addition of ground coriander, red pepper flakes for a little kick and my little secret\u2026Dijon mustard and fresh lemon juice. It may sound a little strange, but it works. I love this dish as side or a main, hot or cold.<\/p>\n

A simple dish with pointed cabbage as the star<\/h2>\n

So if you are looking for new ways to enjoy winter cabbage, here is something a little different. Potatoes are also the secret to its extra tastiness. They add a natural umani effect and are exactly what can easily turn a side dish into a delicious main. I like to use small young potatoes that don\u2019t need peeling. It\u2019s less work and they offer extra nutrition. I like to leave my halved or quartered, but you could also give them a little smash with the back of a fork to break them up a bit. As for the cabbage, pointed cabbage is my choice here. It has a lovely mild flavor and tender texture, which is terrific enjoyed \u201cal dente\u201d. So no need for a super long cooking time, you can cook until it has a tender crunch.<\/p>\n

How to serve Pointed Cabbage Stir-fry with Potatoes<\/h2>\n

I personally love to enjoy this pointed cabbage recipe on it\u2019s own. It makes for a light but filling meal, but it can also be enjoyed as side dish alongside protein of choice, or with garlic naan or roti bread. Or how about a lamb curry or curried rice dish. You could even add a little extra veg, like frozen peas. or steamed green beans. And even add some grilled prawns.<\/p>\n
