Roasted Red Cabbage with Green Sauce

A simple and healthy roasted red cabbage dish paired with a vibrant green sauce, perfect as a side or light main.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 kg (2.2 lb) red cabbage, thinly sliced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 handful fresh parsley
  • 1 handful fresh dill
  • 1/2 cup sunflower seeds
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • Juice of 1/2 lemon
  • 1 tbsp tahini
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup water (adjust as needed)
  • 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds (for topping)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 200 degrees C (390 degrees F).
  2. Thinly slice the red cabbage and place it on a baking tray. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt. Toss to coat evenly. Roast for 30 to 35 minutes, turning halfway through, until golden brown and tender.
  3. Meanwhile, combine parsley, dill, sunflower seeds, garlic, tahini, olive oil, salt, water, and lemon juice in a blender. Blend until smooth, adjusting the water as needed for desired consistency.
  4. Transfer the roasted cabbage to a serving plate. Drizzle with the green sauce and sprinkle toasted sesame seeds on top for extra crunch and flavor. Serve warm or cold.

Notes

Store cooled roasted cabbage and green sauce in separate airtight containers for up to 4 days. The green sauce may firm up in the fridge; stir in a teaspoon of water or olive oil to loosen it before serving.
