This recipe I learnt from my Mother in Law .I love the way she makes thorans especially with cheera (keerai).
She never adds water to any of the thorans and cooks in very low fire.

Cabbage - 1cup
green peas- 1/4 cup
onion- 1 chopped
oil- 3tsp
salt- to taste
mustard seeds- 1/4 tsp
red chilli -1 (broken into two)

To Grind:
garlic- 2 cloves
green chillies -1
curry leaves
jeera- 1/4 tsp
coconut- 2- 3 tsp grated
Grind these coarsely.Keep it aside.

METHOD:
Heat oil in kadai.When hot add mustard seeds, red chilli.
Add onions. fry well
Add cabbage, green peas.Mix well.
Simmer the heat .Cover and cook for 10 min.
Now add the coconut mixture and mix well .Let it cook for 5 minutes.
Serve hot with sambhar or rasam rice.
