Dal and Cabbage Curry

Meanwhile, in Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA, Mana and Pop cooked Max and Zoë's recipes for dal and cabbage curry. They were delicious. I'm pretty sure they followed the official Indian instructions almost to the letter. Pop made the dal (I think he said he used a slightly different kind of dal?), and Mana made the cabbage, using a bit less coconut than Zoë specified. She wondered if it would come out differently because she wasn't using fresh coconut right from the shell. Here are several pictures of Isaac enjoying our meal:
