Roasted Cabbage Steaks

Simple AND really delicious, not truly, this could reconfigure your relationship with cabbage.

Not surprisingly, this approach was introduced to the farm by Donna, as many recipes/approaches are and it has stuck as a favorite. You get some of that satisfying crunch yet the soft, meatiness too. A great side dish for nearly any meal!

Ingredients

• Cabbage

• Salt & Pepper

• Fat of your choice, particularly good done with fat from roasting a chicken, pork or turkey but lard or another oil will also do the trick

• paprika or other herbs & spices (optional)

• Crushed or sliced Garlic (optional)

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees

2. Slice cabbage into about half inch (or so) steaks. can be thicker or thinner, but best if about the same

3. Baste/brush both sides with the fat of your choice and lay on a cookie sheet

4. Add Salt & pepper to each steak

5. Add any other spices or herbs you choose and sprinkle top with garlic if using

6. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until edges are crispy

7. Enjoy just as is, or get fancy and serve with hot sauce, a mustardy vinaigrette or a bit of your favorite vinegar

Tip: Depending on your oven and preference you can always put them under broil for last few minutes to crisp further!
