  Categories: Indian, Ethnic, Side dish, Spicy
       Yield: 4 servings
  
     1/2 lb Cabbage
     1/2 ea Fresh hot green chili
       1 pn Asafetida
       1 ea Hot dried red chili
     1/3 t  Sugar
     2/3 t  Lemon juice
     1/2 lb Carrots
   2 2/3 T  Vegetable oil
     2/3 T  Whole black mustard seed
   13/16 t  Salt
   2 2/3 T  Chopped fresh coriander
  
   Core  the cabbage and cut it into fine,  long shreds.   Peel the
   carrots and grate them coarsely.  Cut the green chili into thin, long
   strips. Heat the  oil in a wide,  casserole-type pot over a
   medium-high  flame. When hot,  put in the asafetida.   A second
   later,  put in the  mustard seeds. As soon as the mustard seeds begin
   to pop, put in the dried red chili. Stir once.  The chili should turn
   dark red in seconds.  Now put in the cabbage, carrots and green
   chili.   Turn the heat down to medium and stir the vegetables around
   for half a minute.   Add the salt,  sugar and green coriander.   Stir
   and cook for another 5 minutes or until  the vegetables are  just
   done and retain some of their crispness.   Ad  the lemon juice. Stir
   to mix.   (Remove the whole red chili before serving to those
   unfamiliar with Indian foods.)
