Print Friendly and PDF
Cabbage carrot poriyal

Cabbage carrot poriyal (Muttaikose carrot poriyal) is one of the poriyal recipes I make at least once in a week. This tastes similar to Kerala style cabbage carrot thoran. Addition of coconut, cumin seeds, chilli, garlic and curry leaves makes the difference from regular cabbage carrot poriyal. We all loved this side dish for sambar and vatha kuzhambu rice.

For variations, you can skip the grinding part and saute all the spices. But its a simple version. Soon I will try to share that here. You can also add frozen peas along with carrot cabbage to make a tricolor poriyal. Today lets see how to make this yummy carrot cabbage poriyal for rice. If you like, you can mix this poriyal with rice adding ghee or sesame oil. It also tastes great. Do try this poriyal recipe and share your feedback with me.
