Patta Gobi Matar Sabzi | Cabbage & Peas Stirfry Recipe

Cabbage and peas stir fry is common side dish one can find in buffets or in any Indian food stall/restaurants mostly those serves office people here in Singapore.  For the reason that it's quick, easy and taste good plus cheaper to have as a side dish it's popular among food joints.  It's a very simple recipe and can be done in jiffy, perfect for weekday lunch box.  It's goes well with paratha or dal rice, sambar-rasam rice combo.  For me I like the bright color combination this dish brings and it's light so makes it perfect with my dal fry, these pictures are not doing justices to the recipe so try it to get the actual idea about this dish.
