Notes
Small - medium sized cabbage has been used. As sizes do vary, you may need to adjust the amounts of the other ingredients slightly.
Maceration of the cabbage helps to infuse all the flavors.
You can make this a few hours earlier and let it sit in the fridge, it will become juicier and more flavorsome.
A few serving suggestions - With any type of mujadara (lentil & rice version) or mujadara hamra (lentil and burgul version). Great as a side to baked vegan pasta or curried barley porridge.
