2 hot green peppers                     1 c. water

Shred cabbage into tiny pieces. Cut green pepper into small pieces. In a saucepan boil moong dhal or chana dhal in 1 cup of water. When the water boils, add green pepper, salt and shredded cabbage. When the cabbage is cooked (do not overcook), remove from heat and drain the water if there is any. In a frying pan, saute mustard seeds and urad dhal in oil. When the mustard seeds crack and urad dhal turns brown, add onion. When the onion turns golden add the cabbage and coconut. Stir well and remove from heat. Serve with rice. Serves 10.
