Finely chop cabbage. in pressure cooker add dal, tomato, turmeric green chillies,1/2 TSP cumin and water. Leave for 3 whistle and remove from cooker. I used pressure cooker separator to cook dal and cabbage separately.

Once done, drain water from cabbage. And keep it aside

In a separate pan, add oil and mustard seed, cumin asofoetida, curry leaves.

Now add cabbage and dal together. Mix all together adjust salt to taste

Add sambar powder and cumin powder to the above dal. Add grinded coconut to give extra taste the dal
