Method

  1. 1 Shred the cabbage into very thin strips, about 2 mm thick; thoran must be shredded thinly because the vegetable only cooks by its own steam.
  2. 2 Grind the grated coconut with dried chili peppers and turmeric powder until it forms a fluffy mixture.
  3. 3 Sauté mustard seeds in coconut oil until they pop, then add urad beans and curry leaves until the beans turn golden.
  4. 4 Add the vegetables and stir for 2 minutes, then sprinkle with the coconut mixture and cover, simmering for 6 minutes without adding water.
  5. 5 Open the lid and stir over high heat for 1 minute to evaporate the moisture; the dish is done when it is completely dry.
