Ingredients

Cabbage Steaks

• 1 large green or purple cabbage
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• Salt and black pepper to taste

Miso Butter

• 3 tablespoons vegan butter, softened
• 1 1/2 tablespoons white miso paste
• 2 garlic cloves, grated
• 1 teaspoon maple syrup
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice
• 1/2 teaspoon chili flakes

Garnish

• Chopped chives
• Toasted sesame seeds
• Lemon wedges

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
2. Slice cabbage into thick “steaks” about 1-inch wide, keeping the core intact so the slices stay together.
3. Arrange cabbage steaks on a lined baking tray and brush both sides with olive oil. Season with salt and black pepper.
4. In a small bowl, mix vegan butter, miso paste, garlic, maple syrup, lemon juice, and chili flakes until smooth.
5. Roast cabbage for 20 minutes, then carefully flip.
6. Brush generously with the miso butter mixture and roast for another 15–20 minutes until edges are deeply charred and caramelized.
7. Finish with chives, sesame seeds, and fresh lemon juice before serving.

Notes

• Purple cabbage creates a dramatic presentation.
• For extra crispiness, broil for the last 2 minutes.
• Delicious served over rice or creamy mashed potatoes.
