    Ingredients

    10 ingredients in total! Yes, that’s for the cabbage wedges and the chimichurri sauce! Simple, very affordable and deliciously plant-based.

    Equipment Used

    This cabbage recipe doesn’t require any special equipment, but there are a few things that will help the process along:

    • High-Rimmed Roasting Tray is used so that you can cover the cabbage wedges with foil letting them cook quicker in their own steam. The high rim of the tray makes it easier, as the foil doesn’t press on the cabbage directly.
    • Foil: we always recommend Kirkland Signature Foodservice Foil. It may seem expensive at a first glance, but there are 200m of it – it lasts forever, and it’s strong and doesn’t tear easily!
    • We also use a pastry brush to cover the wedges in the spiced oil.
    • You will need a large sharp knife to cut the cabbage wedges. We are big fans of Global Knives.

    Step-By-Step Recipe

    STEP 1: Prepare and Roast the Cabbage Wedges

    Preheat the oven to the highest setting, usually 240°C Fan.

    Combine the olive oil, smoked paprika, sugar, salt and a pinch of pepper in a small bowl.

    Cut half of the cabbage into four equal wedges. Leave the core intact as it will help the wedge to keep its shape in the oven.

    Line a high-rimmed baking tray with foil and place the cabbage wedges in it. Brush the cabbage with the oil. Cover the top of the tray with another sheet of foil tightly and roast for 25 minutes.

    After 25 minutes, remove the foil and roast for another 10 minutes. Your cabbage should be tender and the sides browned. Note that, roasting times may vary depending on the size and age of your cabbage.

    STEP 2: How to Make a Quick Chimichurri?

    Whilst the cabbage is roasting, make the chimichurri sauce. In a pestle and mortar, bash the coriander, vinegar, chilli, garlic and onion to a rough paste. Add the olive oil and mix.

    STEP 3: Assemble the Dish

    When the cabbage is cooked, serve two wedges per portion, drizzled with the chimichurri sauce on top. For ideas on what to serve the cabbage with, have a look at the section below.

    Recipe FAQs

    How To Cut Cabbage For Roasting?

    Remove any damaged outer leaves of a cabbage, then cut into quarters through the core. Cut each quarter into two equal wedges. Leave the core intact as it will help the wedge to keep its shape in the oven whilst roasting.

    What Else Can I Flavour Cabbage Wedges With?

    Instead of using smoked paprika, make your cabbage wedges hot and spicy by adding a teaspoon of your favourite chilli paste or sauce (we love Harissa and Sriracha). Alternatively, try the roasted cabbage with curry powder or simply add some minced garlic to your oil.

    What To Serve with Roasted Cabbage Wedges?

    We love the roasted cabbage wedges served with creamy mashed potato and roasted cherry tomatoes:

    • Creamy Mashed Potato Using Moulin Legumes
