Equipment

  • Stock pot

Ingredients
  

  • 4 medium carrots cut into thin sticks
  • 1 large onion thinly sliced
  • 1/3 cup olive oil extra virgin
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon ginger minced
  • 1 head cabbage shredded
  • 4 large potatoes yukon gold, diced
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon turmeric
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
 

  • In a stock pot or a very large skillet, sauté carrots and onion in olive oil over medium heat for 3 minutes. Add garlic and ginger. Continue to simmer for 2 more minutes or until the vegetables are just softened.
  • Stir in cumin, turmeric, salt, and pepper. Cook for 30 seconds. Then, mix in the cabbage.
  • Continue cooking for another 15 minutes, stirring regularly. NOTE: If the cabbage starts to stick, add a little water and reduce heat.
  • Add the potatoes and cover. Reduce heat to medium-low. Continue cooking until potatoes are soft, which may take another 30 minutes or so. Stir periodically to prevent sticking.
  • Once the potatoes are soft, this dish is ready to eat! Enjoy!
