I am here with the dish my son loves a lot. There is something about this purple cabbage that attracts him so much and I think it has a lot to do with color. This paired with rasam is an ultimate comfort food for him and is often on the menu. I just change the variety of rasam and keep the cabbage curry simple.
From Naturalnews.com:
Purple cabbage contains 36 different types of antioxidants, including the health-giving anthocyanins. There is evidence to suggest that purple cabbage helps build a healthy brain and a healthy heart and acts as a fat burner.
