Due to the abundance of leeks in our refrigerator, I decided to combine it with some cabbage this time round for a simple side dish with dal.The use of the Indian five spice called panch phoran is very common in North Indian cooking and its an aromatic mix of mustard,fennel,fenugreek,cumin and nigella seeds.Its easily available at your local Indian grocers.I cook a variety of vegetables in a similar manner when I want something quick on the table.I serve it with some dal, roti, rice and a simple salad. Sometimes simple dishes are all you crave and they comfort you like none other.This is an easy side dish for an Indian Inspired menu any day of the week and couldn’t be easier with some lovely flavor combos.I’m inspired to use leeks a bit more in my Indian cooking since they take on the spices quite well.You’ll see them on the blog of course.In the meantime enjoy this lovely recipe.
