Swede curry

I personally does not like the taste of cabbage, but this tastes and smells like cabbage....then i prepared this curry, it tastes good ...... you can have it as a side dish..... 

The swede (rutabaga , Swedish turnip, or yellow turnip) is a root vegetable that is originated as a cross between the cabbage and the turnip. The roots are prepared for food in a variety of ways, and its leaves can also be eaten as a leaf vegetable.
People use swede in a variety of ways; roasted to be served with meat dishes, as the major ingredient in the ever popular Christmas dish swede casserole, as a major flavor enhancer in soups, uncooked and julienned as a side dish or in a salad, baked, or boiled.
