I learned to cook with an Indian lady!
- 2 onions dices
- 1tbsp ground ginger
- 1 tbsp ground garlic
(they call it garlic ginger masala usually blended together with lots of salt and frozen)
1 heaped tsp of each of these: generous heap ( I think I do More)
- coriander powder
- turmeric
- cumin powder
- Himalayan salt
- 1/4 tsp chili powder optional
( if wanted can add about 8 cloves, cinnamon stick and a star anise, I don't)
- optional curry leaves
- Huge amount of cabbage thinly sliced.
- fresh chopped coriander stalks and leaves.
Prep all Veggies first...as you have to stand over it.
Method:
Melt coconut oil (extra virgin) or any other healthy oil in a large frypan or wok. Add onions to medium-high heat and a bit of salt and sauté for well over 5 minutes (may need to add more oil) till golden but not dark brown, (they kind of make a popping noise toward the end and look fat as my observation but not essential)
STIR continuously.
Add spices and continue a further min, add garlic ginger masala and salt a furth 30 secs as it spits.
More oil if needed.
Add cabbage and toss continuously add salt, yes they use allot of salt and she would use sugar but I don't.
taste and if you need to add more spice or garlic I make a hole in the centre add a bit of oil and spice to cook for a min, then stir it through.
cook till you like it, I like mine soft so I usually add chunkier vein bits first.

Use the same method for green beans and peas
or peas and spinach
I think beans and peas or spinach is yummiest

Ted's Remedies
Ted from Bangkok, Thailand replies: "Karen: The worst sugar I can imagine is the corn syrup fructose, found in nearly all the soft drinks and many in prepared foods and ingredients, such as ketchup.
Technically speaking there is worse sugar than this, but luckily is not sold in the market such as ribose sugar, for example.
Bacteria which causes boils need sugar to fuel their growth and nothing grows better than fructose syrup (or corn syrup) or even glucose is just as bad. Sucrose can place some blame, but unfortunately the present classification using sucrose as highest on glycemic index is not exactly a correct one.
The way to kill the boils is to use xylitol added to the foods instead of any sugar. Xylitol kills certain bacteria and fungus which caused the boils, but alkalizing in an important one. Of course the xylitol needs to be taken somewhat between 1/2 teaspoon divided dose of 3 times per day, with sufficient water and sufficient alkalinity from baking soda, which is seen at least 1/2 teaspoon in 1/2 glass of water usually 2 to 3 times a day.
Borax remedies can block negative actions of sugar on the boils with borax in 1% h2O2 topical application, or even 1/4 teaspoon of borax in 1 liter of drinking water to block the sugar metabolism caused by the boils, thus reducing the condition too.
Although vitamin B1 with sufficient alkalinity of the body and vitamin B3 and B6, vanadium, chromium and tungsten helps control sugar levels too. A lot of remedies I posted has a lot to do with these organism as the causing many of the sicknesses today.
Many research studies point to high fructose diet as the cause of obesity in U.S., which is why schools are banning the use of soft drinks. I can't see any benefit of the use of fructose, although I would prefer the use of polyol sugars, especially xylitol, but sometimes erythritol or mannitol. I used xylitol all the time as a mouthwash, or sometimes to reduce problems of autoimmunity too."
