Any kind of oil-cooked cabbage disappears pretty fast in our house. Often I like to finely shred and saute it with oil and sea salt until it’s just given in and wilted a little. The combined crunch plus rich saltiness is so moreish. This version definitely has more ‘wow’ factor, since the cabbage is first sliced into large, round disks, before roasting. The result is even more enticing, and nothing like the boiled cabbage you may be fearing from your youth!

Roasted Cabbage Slices |
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
- Slice the cabbage starting at the top of the head so that the inner pieces form circles within the slices. Aim for ¼-1/2 inch slices.
- Oil a baking sheet with 1 tablespoon of the oil. Place the cabbage on the baking sheet and drizzle with the remaining oil. You may need to melt it if using a solid oil like coconut oil.
- Sprinkle with desired spices and place in the oven.
- Roast for 35-40 minutes or until tender in the middle and sides are just starting to turn golden brown. Remove and serve.
Optional: 1 teaspoon of herbs like basil, caraway seeds, dill, etc.
