Method

1. Get a wok or a large frying pan hot. Add a splash of oil, the onion and a pinch of salt. Lower heat. Fry till tender. Stir often.
2. Mix in the garlic, chilli and ginger. Cook a mo, till softened. Add the cinnamon, bay and all the remaining spices. Stir till fragrant.
3. Fold the cabbage through. Bring the heat up. Add 1/2 mug of water. Let it sizzle and reduce right down, till it’s pretty much evaporated. Stir the cabbage as it cooks.
4. Once the water's gone, pour in the coconut milk. Stir. Cook till thickened a little. Grate in a little lemon/lime zest and a squeeze of juice. Taste. Adjust seasoning if needed. Serve warm with rice or naan.
