Cabbage and Carrot Thoran

This is the most commonly made of all thorans in my home. It is easy to make and very very tasty. It tastes great when served with warm matta rice and kaachiya moru. I usually make it in bulk hoping to make it last for a few days. But it seldom would. Everyone is sure to ask for more helpings and it would be finished in the wink of an eye. A no fail recipe in my home!!
Ingredients
Cabbage -1 cup, shredded
Carrot - 1 no, grated
Freshly grated coconut- 1/2cup
Onion -1 medium
Green chilles-3 nos
Garlic -3 cloves
Cumin Seeds-1/4tsp
Turmeric powder- a pinch
Salt to taste
Mustard seeds - 1/2tsp
Curry Leaves- 2 springs

Method:
Grind coarsely, coconut, onion, green chilies, garlic, cumin seeds and turmeric powder and salt. Heat oil in a frying pan and fry mustard seeds. Add coarsely ground coconut mixture and curry leaves and fry for one minute. In to this add shredded cabbage and grated carrot. Mix well, cover and cook on low flame for 3 minutes. Open lid and stir well until all the water in it evaporates. Serve hot as a side dish with boiled rice.
