Equipment
Ingredients
- ½ white cabbage about 600g
- 2 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- ½ teaspoon caster sugar
- ¼ teaspoon salt
For Chimichurri:
- ½ green chilli finely chopped
- 15 g coriander finely chopped, including stalks
- ⅛ onion finely chopped
- 1 small garlic clove crushed
- 3 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon vinegar red wine or rice
Serve With:
- roasted cherry tomatoes
- creamy mashed potato
Instructions
- 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 for 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 curry 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.
- Whilst the cabbage is roasting, make 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.
- When the cabbage is cooked, serve two wedges per portion, drizzled with the chimichurri sauce on top.
Notes
We love the roasted cabbage wedges served with creamy mashed potato and roasted cherry tomatoes.
