Cabbage is a lovely staple that is easy to include in cooking, can be prepared in so many different ways and is both wallet friendly, healthy and nutritious. If you want to eat more vegetarian or vegan food but also want to keep down the cost cabbage is great to experiment with. This dish is made with point cabbage that is roasted in the oven with a lovely miso and soy sauce, topped with chili flakes and crispy scallion. The sauce is made with white miso, which has a sweet and slightly salty taste but also adds that wonderful umami flavor and a creamy texture to the sauce. I used tamari in my sauce to make it gluten free, you can also use soy sauce. The soy sauce provides a rich salty, sweet and umami flavor, not to forget the wonderful dark color. There is some fresh ginger with a pungent, warm and spicy taste. To break off all of these intense flavors a little rice vinegar with acid notes and agave/fiber syrup with a rich, creamy and sweet taste is added to balance up the saltiness. It is a wonderful mix of warm point cabbage with a tender inside and crunchy edges, a rich, flavorful, sauce with clear umami and slightly sweet flavors with hot chili flakes and crispy scallion on top. Serve this dish as a side dish along with your main course or eat it as a main dish with some rice/cauliflower rice, potato/cauliflower purée or a fresh yogurt dressing. This dish is vegan, gluten, grain, dairy free and low carb.
A few tips:
- Cut the point cabbage into equally sized halves/wedges to make sure the baking time is the same for all parts.
- Check on the cabbage to make sure it doesn’t burn in the oven. If it starts to turn too brown cover it with aluminum foil and keep on baking.
- The amount of ginger in the sauce can be adapted according to taste.
- Pour half of the miso and soy sauce when the cabbage is almost done and bake for another 5-10 minutes.
- Make sure to save some of the sauce for serving.
- The cabbage should be soft and tender on the inside with lovely crunchy edges on the outside when done.
