HOW TO MAKE:


Wash Magge, peel off the skin and remove the seeds.
Cut them into a little big cubes.
Cut the cabbage leaves, 2 inches piece
Peel  the skins off potato and cut into cubes


Pressure cook the Vegs without water for 10-15 minutes, after the first whistle.


Grind coconut, red chillies and tamarind with a little water to a fine paste.


Transfer the boiled veges in a vessel and add salt to it and keep on the fire.
Add boiled dal and ground masala  and mix well. Let it boil.
When it starts bubbling switch off the burner.
