Curried Cabbage

Erin, a former guest farmer, contributed the following recipe. She says, “My wonderful spicy cabbage recipe which was adapted from farmer john’s cookbook – which in his book was adapted from another curry book. Serve hot, enticing your dinner guests to eat something made with cabbage other than coleslaw.”
