I dont much about Jains and their cuisine until few days back, but after reading about jains and their cuisines while googling i was amazed by their different curries without onions, potatoes and garlic..one among those jain curries is this cabbage sabji i found while googling here..this sabji is very easy with tomatoes, chopped green chillies and chilli powder etc..quite a delicious sabji goes prefectly with chappathis and parathas...even with rice with sambhar and rasam..for the first time i prepared this jain curries at home and we enjoyed it..This tasty cabbage sabji goes to RCI-Jain Cuisine guest hosted by PJ of Seduce Your Tastebuds, event started by Lakshmi

  16. Hi Priya,
    Jainism, their way of life and their cuisine has always awed me ever since reading about Mahaveer and his followers, I am speechless about the dicipline and strictness in their diet.
    Though the cabbage sabji sounds simple, it's a must try good to have saatvik food more often :) Thanks dear.

  21. Cabbage is a vegetable which is composed of water but contain potassium, magnesium and vitamins that help our body. Many people like to prepare salad or another kind of recipe. You mus to approach all the propeties this vegetable.
