Cabbage Poblano Flatbread

1 cup whole wheat flour
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
2 cups shredded cabbage
2 tablespoons fresh ginger -- minced
2 tablespoons poblano peppers -- minced
2 1/2 teaspoons sesame seeds
2 tablespoons vegetable oil -- as needed

Sift the flours, coriander, turmeric, cardamom and salt into a large bowl.
Stir in the cabbage, ginger, poblano, sesame seeds, 2/3 cup water and 2
tablespoons oil. Using your hands, knead the dough on a lightly floured
surface for 12 minutes, then let it rest under a towel for 15 minutes.
Separate the dough into 12 equal balls. On a lightly floured surface, roll
out each ball into a round, about 1/8 inch thick.
Place a medium skillet over medium heat. Lightly oil the skillet and fry
each round, turning once, until golden brown, about 1 minute per side.
Transfer the cooked flatbreads to a platter and keep warm. Continue until
all the breads are cooked, adding more oil to the skillet as needed.


Aleecha <Ethiopian>

1/2 cup onion; sliced
10 cloves garlic; sliced thin
2 cup carrots; sliced thin
1 cup water
3 tablespoon corn oil
1 teaspoon turmeric; ground
1 fresh hot green peppers; halved, to 3 peppers
1 lb cabbage; coarsely sliced
1 teaspoon queman; see note
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 teaspoon salt; to taste
1 lb potatoes; cut like French

Aleecha is a mixed vegetable stew. Quemam contains an ingredient not
found in the US. I'd substitute dry berbere spice mix. In dry pan over
moderate low heat, stir fry onion, garlic, and carrots for 2 mins. Add
1/2 cup of the water and cook 5 mins longer. Add the oil and continue to
simmer.
Add the turmeric, chilies, and cabbage. Cover the pan and steam to
reduce the bulk for 2 mins. Stir well and add the quemam, tomato
paste, salt and the potatoes.
Cover the pan and cook for 5 mins. Add the remaining water and simmer
for 5 minutes more to soften the potatoes and thicken the sauce
somewhat. Serve at room temperature with Injeera.

Put mayonnaise and mustard in a bowl large enough to hold complete

beating all the time. Beat until mixture has returned to the
thickness of original mayonnaise. Add Louisiana hot sauce, continuing
to beat. Add ketchup and keep beating. Add salt and garlic salt,
beating all the time. Add wine vinegar (this will thin the sauce
down). Beat this thoroughly, adding the lemon juice as you do so.
Taste for salt and pepper. Place shredded cabbage, peppers, and
onions in a large salad bowl. pour sauce over and toss well. This
should be done about an hour before serving. Tastes even better the
next day.

"In Bangladesh, cabbage is usually available in the market during the
winter season, as are tomatoes, peas and carrots. So this dish appears
quite frequently at Bengali dinner tables during the winter. In the
markets
where such vegetables are available year round, banda is a popular
standard." Meghna Guharthakurta, Dhaka, Bangladesh
Start by heating the oil in a heavy pan and put in the tumeric and some
salt. Fry for a few seconds and then add the cubed potatoes, turning
frequently so that they turn yellow from the tumeric. Cook them for 5-10
minutes (they will complete their cooking later) and remove them from the
oil and set aside. Adding more oil if necessary, now saute the onion
slices
until they are soft and transparent. Then add the bay leaf, cumin, ginger
and chili powder. Stir well and put in the tomatoes. When they have begun
to break down, add the cabbage bit by bit, stirring it in well so that it
is sauteed in the spices. Cover and cook gently for 3-5 minutes. Finally
put in the peas and semi-fried potatoes and seasoning.Mix well, replace
the
cover and continue to cook for 5-10 minutes or until potatoes are ready.
