This recipe was literally born of my desire to make use of a large amount of Garam Masala spice we had in the cupboard, not to mention I love Indian inspired flavors!
I had just a few ingredients to make use of and I gave it shot, but my husband only tolerates cabbage because they are not mushrooms, which he dislikes more, and if I could win him over I knew it would be blog-worthy!
He LOVED it!
And, with 9 humans to cook for every single meal, I love anything that will help me do that quickly, and with one pan. This recipe ticks all the boxes in the Treehouse.

Ingredients
- 1 medium to large head of cabbage
- 2 pounds ground meat *See note below
- 1 can coconut milk *See note below
- 2 Tablespoons Garam Masala
- 1 Tablespoon Mineral Salt
- 2 teaspoons Garlic Powder, we like to buy our spice from here.
- 2 teaspoons Onion Powder
- 1 teaspoon Turmeric Powder
Method
- Cook Ground Meat and drain fat, and add spices. Cook a few minutes.
- Cut cabbage to your preference, I diced mine because of toddlers and early eaters
- Add cut cabbage to the pan, and let cook down a few minutes.
