Notes

1. Instead of Brussel Sprout cabbage can be used
2. Can cook the Brussel Sprouts in the microwave and do steps 1 and 4
3. Instead of peas, soaked moong dal can be used. Cook moong dal with Brussel Sprouts in that case
4. If you are using dry Peas, soak and cook them separately and add them to the curry

    Oh yay, have just been harvesting Brussel Sprouts by the hundreds this week and was wondering what to do with them all, other than freeze them for later! Perfect recipe too, as I am Vegan. 🙂 I am looking forward to making this very soon. Thank you again.
