Cabbage sannapolo

This is a spicy side dish prepared with shredded cabbage. This Konkani dish goes very well with rice and saar upkari or dali thove. I have prepared this today and I think I should share this simple recipe with you. This sanna polo can also be prepared only with onions.

Ingredients:

2 cups of shredded cabbage

2 onions finely chopped

1 cup grated coconut

1 cup rice soaked in water

One half-cup tuvar dal soaked in water

A small piece of tamarind

6-7 red chillies

Salt to taste

Method

Wash and soak the rice and tuvar dal for half an hour. Chop the onions and cabbage into very small pieces and keep it aside. Grind together red chillies, tamarind, and half of the grated coconut to form a thick masala. To this masala add the rice and tuvar dal and grind to form a coarse batter. To this mixture, add the onions, cabbage, rest of the grated coconut and salt to taste and mix well.

Now heat a nonstick tava and pour the mixture with a ladle and make small dosas. Fry it well on both sides by adding little oil. Serve this hot spicy cabbage sanna polo with rice and dali thove. This is somewhat similar to cabbage sannakotto, which I have written earlier.
