Roasted Cabbage with Tahini Dressing

Need some cabbage inspo? Look no further!

Forget the boring old boiled stuff – this is the glow-up we’ve all been waiting for.

Roast Savoy in the oven and it turns tender, sweet, and just a little crispy on the edges. Top it with a silky tahini dressing and suddenly you’ve got a dish that’s fancy enough for guests, but easy enough for a Tuesday night.

Ingredients:

For the Tahini Dressing:

• 100g Greek yogurt or sour cream
• 50ml olive oil
• 1 tablespoon tahini
• 1/2 lemon, juiced
• Salt, to taste
• Pepper, to taste
• 1 small clove of garlic (or half, if large), minced

Method:

1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
2. Wash the savoy cabbage thoroughly and cut it into quarters.
3. Place the cabbage quarters on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
4. Drizzle with a dash of olive oil and sprinkle with a pinch of salt.
5. Bake for 30 minutes, checking after 15 minutes to ensure the cabbage isn't browning too quickly. If it starts to darken, cover the cabbage with aluminium foil and continue baking.
6. While the cabbage is roasting, prepare the tahini dressing by blending all the ingredients together in a blender until smooth. Adjust the seasoning as needed.
7. Once the cabbage is done, serve it warm or cold, drizzled with the tahini dressing.
8. Garnish with toasted peanuts and fresh herbs for added flavour and texture.
