    Cabbage Egg Bhurji

    Cabbage bhurji is the last recipe under the theme bhurji recipes, for the first week of this month's blogging marathon # 62. This is an interesting recipe and I was skeptical when saw it online. To my surprise, cabbage blended well into the bhurji. To be on the safe side, I added four eggs instead of 3.

    I have seen recipes where cabbage is used as a substitute for onion and really wanted to try cabbage bhurji, though I was skeptical about the taste. This is a nice way to sneak in cabbage into food for picky eaters. There are many recipes online and I made the bhurji to my liking. This is a standard egg bhurji recipe with an addition of grated cabbage. Once the cabbage is cooked, eggs are added and scrambled.

    Preparation: 5 - 8 minutes
    Cooking Time: 12 - 15 minutes
    Serves: 2

    Ingredients:

    • 1 ¾ - 2 cups grated Cabbage
    • 2 - 3 tablespoon Oil (I used 3 tbsp.)
    • ½ cup chopped Onions
    • 1 - 1 ½ tsp. Ginger Garlic Paste
    • 6 small Green Chilies, chopped
    • ½ - 1 teaspoon Coriander Powder (opt)
    • ⅛ tsp. Turmeric Powder
    • ½ - ¾ tsp. Chili Powder (adjust to taste)
    • ¾ tsp. Salt (adjust to taste)
    • 4 Eggs
    • Cilantro ~ Coriander Leaves for garnish

    Preparation:

    • Wash ⅓ of a small cabbage. Cut into big pieces and process in a food processor using a grating blade. It can also be hand grated.
    • Heat oil in a nonstick pan, add onions and saute until soft.
    • Add ginger garlic paste and fry for few seconds until raw smell is gone.
    • Add green chilies and saute until chilies change color.
    • Add coriander powder, chili powder, salt, turmeric powder and stir well.
    • Add cabbage and mix.
    • Cover and cook for couple of minutes. Remove cover, stir and cook covered for another couple of minutes on medium flame or until cabbage is tender and soft.
    • Beat eggs in a bowl. Pour it over cabbage mixture. Stir immediately to scramble the egg.
    • Increase the flame and cook until egg is cooked.
    • Add chopped cilantro, stir and transfer to a serving bowl.
    • Serve cabbage bhurji for breakfast with toasted bread or with roti. It can also be served as a side dish with rice or as a filling for wraps.

      Lovely pic Usha. I love this bhurji. In fact we used to substitute onions with cabbage when we followed Chaturmaas. Had some amazing results with the dishes cooked. I love this bhurji.
