Gomen ferenj / Ethiopian vegetable dish

Recipe for four

Cabbage, washed cut into 3 cm squares, about 800 gm
1 big carrot, peeled and cut into slices or sticks (can be substituted with others, although I find carrot, slightly sweet, goes best))
1 onion, cleaned and cut into wedges
2 cloves garlic, remove skin
1 cm piece ginger, peel off skin
1/2 tsp turmeric powder
salt to taste
Vegetable/olive oil - 5 tbsp

Pound together the garlic and ginger. Leave aside.

Heat oil in deep pan. Fry onion wedges till brown. Add carrot and cabbage. Fry in pan for 2 minutes, add half to one cup water, cover to let cook till cabbage is soft. Add turmeric and the garlic ginger mixture. Stir till spices are cooked, add salt to taste.
