Finely slice the cabbage..Also dice the onions..Half-cook the dhall using a little water..
Take some oil in a saucepan and splutter the mustard seeds and urad dhall..Then add the diced onions and cook until they turn soft..Add the sliced cabbage and channa dhall with very little water...Add chilli powder and salt and stir..Close it with a lid and allow it to cook for 4 to 5 minutes..The cabbage reduces to almost half its size once it geys cooked..Do not overcook..Add some grated coconut and serve.
