5. Place the cabbage carrot fillings which you prepared in step 3.


6. Cover it up all the sides and press well , so the fillings doesn't come out.

SPICY RED SAUCE:

1. Boil , Tomatoes and red chilli in water for at least 5 to 6 minutes.


2. Remove the tomatoes and chilli from the boiling water. The skin of tomatoes would automatically come off. Remove it. Now blend the tomatoes and chilli to a puree. In a pan, add some oil. Add 1/2 tablespoon of ginger and garlic and fry for few minutes. Then, add the tomato puree and required salt and fry for few minutes,till the raw smell is gone.
