Perfectly Roasted Cabbage – Simple & Delicious
Description
This recipe highlights thinly sliced cabbage coated evenly with a healthy drizzle of avocado oil and seasonings before roasting at 425°F (218°C). The high temperature intensifies the cabbage’s flavor by encouraging browning and caramelization while softening the texture. Tossing the cabbage halfway through cooking ensures even browning and prevents sogginess. The use of curry powder as an optional ingredient brings a warm flavor dimension but can be omitted for a milder dish.
Roasted cabbage serves as a simple vegetable side or can be incorporated into salads, bowls, or soups to add texture and flavor. Freshly roasted cabbage offers a pleasing contrast of soft leaves and crispy edges.
It’s best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in the refrigerator in a sealed container for 2 to 3 days. This dish does not freeze well due to the texture changes in cabbage when frozen and reheated.
Ingredients
- 4 cups cabbage red or green, thinly sliced
- 1 ½ - 2 tsp avocado oil (or olive oil // use the greater end of range if adding spices)
- 1 healthy pinch salt sea salt
- 1 healthy pinch black pepper (optional)
- 1 ½ Tbsp curry powder (optional)
Instructions
- Heat your oven to 425°F (218°C). Prepare a large baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper, and add extra sheets if you’re roasting a bigger batch.
- Spread the thinly sliced cabbage across the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with oil and toss to coat each piece evenly. Arrange the cabbage in a single layer, then season with sea salt and black pepper to taste. For a flavor twist, sprinkle with curry powder and toss again to ensure the spices coat every piece.
- Bake the cabbage for 16–20 minutes, or until tender and golden brown. Cooking time will vary depending on how thinly the cabbage is sliced. Halfway through, give it a quick toss to ensure even browning.
- Give the roasted cabbage a taste and add extra salt if needed. Serve it as a simple side, or toss it into bowls, salads, soups, and more for a flavorful boost.
- Best enjoyed fresh. Store any leftovers in a sealed container in the refrigerator for 2–3 days. This dish does not freeze well.
