This would probably be good w/ red cabbage, I like it a lot.

Fried Cabbage

1 lb. green cabbage, shredded
2 T. peanut oil
1 t. black mustard seeds (yellow in a pinch)

make a mixture of:
1/4 t. EACH of: cayenne, turmeric, ground cumin, and ground coriander

1/2 t. minced garlic
1/2 t. salt (to taste)
2 T. lemon juice

Heat oil to medium-high in a large skillet. Add mustard seeds. When
they stop popping (about a minute), add the cabbage and stir. Add the
spice mixture and keep stirring. Add the garlic and salt. Stir well
for 2 minutes.

Cover the skillet, lower the heat to medium, and cook about another 15
minutes, until the cabbage is done. Uncover and stir about every 5
minutes or so. Add the lemon juice, stir well, recover the skillet,
and let sit for 5 minutes.

Stir again, taste for seasoning (add salt, probably), and serve.
