I love this curry cabbage and carrots dish. It’s really easy to make and fairly healthy too. Its cooked with just a little extra-virgin coconut oil and steamed in a small amount of water.
The slight sweetness of the carrots is the perfect flavor counterpart to the spiciness from the scotch bonnet/habanero pepper and curry spice.
Here’s a handy-dandy Pinterest-friendly image for my fellow Pinterest addicts:
Enjoy a bowl of these steamed curry cabbage and carrots as a small meal or serve alongside a meal like I did with these oxtail and coconut rice and beans.
