- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
- 1 teaspoon garam masala

Instructions
- Prepare all ingredients by washing and chopping cabbage into medium-sized pieces, dicing potatoes into 1-inch cubes, and finely chopping onions and garlic.

- Incorporate chopped cabbage and green peas into the pot, mixing well with existing ingredients.
- Sprinkle garam masala and salt, stirring to distribute spices evenly across vegetables.
- Close Instant Pot lid, set valve to sealing position, and cook on Manual/Pressure Cook mode for 5 minutes at high pressure.
- Once cooking completes, allow natural pressure release for 5 minutes, then carefully do a quick release.
- Open lid, gently stir curry, and adjust seasoning if needed. Let sit for 2-3 minutes before serving.
- Serve hot with steamed rice or Indian bread like roti or naan.
Tips
- Prep Ahead: To save time, wash and chop all your vegetables in advance. Store them in airtight containers in the fridge until you're ready to cook.
- Sauté for Flavor: Don’t skip the sautéing step! This enhances the flavors of the onions and garlic, creating a rich base for your curry.
- Adjust Spice Levels: If you prefer a spicier dish, feel free to add a pinch of red chili powder or some chopped green chilies when sautéing the onions.
- Natural Pressure Release: Allowing a natural pressure release for 5 minutes helps the flavors meld together beautifully, resulting in a more flavorful dish.
- Serving Suggestions: This curry pairs wonderfully with steamed basmati rice or warm naan. Garnish with fresh cilantro for an extra burst of flavor and color!
