Cabbage Green Plantain Poriyal

Poriyal is the most common way of vegetable preparation in South Indian when you need something quick and easy. It is characterized by a quick stir fry of vegetables with coconut and a few spices. Poriyal can be made with any combination of vegetables.

Since I had both some extra cabbage and plantains lying around, this is a great way to utilize them.

Check out some of my other poriyals and Indian  side dish vegetable preparations.
