The Goan Cabbage Foogat is a common preparation of Goa. Most households make this dish with their own variations. People like to add turmeric to this dish. I like to see the vegetable in its natural colour and therefore do not use any turmeric. I also like when the cabbage is shredded as against coarsely minced. The vegetable also has to be crunchy and not overcooked. It has to be cooked in its own juices to retain its flavours.
