I am not a great fan of carrots and specially when used in side dishes or curries. The Delhi carrots are sweet and lend a sweet flavor to the dishes hence the hesitancy. With the theme Quick Stir Fries for week 3 I wanted to make Cabbage Stir Fry, which is a total hit in our house, since cabbage was not enough I decided to use carrot too.
I cut the carrots into match sticks and mixed the little cabbage that I had. I added some slit green chillies to give it the spice kick. Surprisingly I enjoyed the Stir Fry, inspite of my mind block. It really turned out delicious , In fact I can have a big bowl of this stir fry . So let us check this simple and quick recipe.

That's an interesting stir fry Vaishali…reminds me that the black carrot is still stocked!,…:(
Healthy combination. Beautiful pics!
I make this combination often but never tried the matchstick style 🙂
Normally I too make this stir fry with cabbage only, will give a try with carrots as well to make it more nutritious
Just love this combo in stir fries, one of my favourite.
This is one such all time favorite stir fry in our household.Looks delicious.
Wow looks yum. I dont like cabbage but this one is tempting me to make some. Simple yet yum right up my street.
I am the opposite of you when it comes to carrots. I usually add carrots wherever I can 🙂
