Healthy and simple Purple cabbage and pea stir fry

Cabbage comes in many varieties and colours,green,white, purple or red cabbage is easily available.
Cabbage is very good for health as it contain carcinogenic properties to fight against Cancer, good to Boast immune system,very low in saturated fat and cholesterol,contain good source of Folates and many essential vitamins and Minerals,so its a  very good idea to include purple cabbage in our diet on regular basis.
We all use green and white cabbge  to make many curries -Cabbage and potato subzi ,  Bengali cabbage and potato curry and snacks-Cabbage Muthiya  and crunchy salads –Cabbage and carrot sambharo but purple cabbage is often used only to make crisp salads,so can’t be used in large quantity.
I tried this tangy and delicious stir fry of purple cabbage by adding some peas and we all liked it and now become a regular in our weekly menu.
