Cabbage Flaxseed Chutney is simple, healthy and tasty chutney that will go with idli, dosa and rice as well. It tastes like pachadi and best suits for variety rice as well. I made these with red cabbage/purple cabbage and the color was so good, attractive and different.

Once when i was watching a culinary show, the chef was telling about the health benefits of different vegetables. He insisted that anything that is colourful is healthier than the colorless vegetables. Purple cabbage, Beetroot, Spinach, Red Radish. All these are so nutritious and has to be included in our diet for sure. I don’t know why but am so much attracted to this purple cabbage that its in my shopping list every time. I include this cabbage in noodles, sabji, curries, thoran/porial. This time i wanted to try chutney with this and it came out perfect and colourful and was very good for both rice and dosa.
