Miso Butter Roasted Cabbage Wedges are a savory and crispy vegetable side dish featuring tender cabbage quarters roasted to perfection with a rich miso butter glaze, topped with toasted garlic breadcrumbs for added texture and flavor.

  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Cabbage Wedges and Miso Butter

  • 3 tbsp butter, divided
  • 1 tbsp miso paste
  • 1 sweetheart (hispi) cabbage, cut into 4 wedges (also known as pointed cabbage in the US)

Breadcrumb Topping

  • ¼ cup Panko breadcrumbs
  • ¼ tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tbsp chopped parsley, optional

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 200°C (400°F) to ensure it reaches the correct temperature for roasting the cabbage evenly.
  2. Prepare the cabbage wedges: Cut the sweetheart cabbage into 4 equal quarters, keeping the core intact to hold the wedges together during cooking.
  3. Make the miso butter glaze: Mix 2 tablespoons of softened butter with 1 tablespoon of miso paste until fully combined. Brush this mixture thoroughly over all sides of the cabbage wedges, including the base, to infuse flavor.
  4. Roast the cabbage: Place the glazed cabbage wedges on a baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes. The cabbage should develop a charred exterior while remaining slightly crisp inside.
  5. Prepare the breadcrumb topping: While the cabbage roasts, melt the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter in a pan over medium heat. Add the panko breadcrumbs and garlic powder, stirring continuously to toast them evenly until golden brown. Remove immediately to prevent burning.
  6. Finish and serve: Once the cabbage is roasted, sprinkle the toasted garlic breadcrumbs evenly over the wedges. Optionally, garnish with chopped parsley for a fresh herbal note before serving.

Notes

  • Using sweetheart (hispi) cabbage ensures a tender texture that roasts evenly.
  • Keep an eye on the breadcrumbs while toasting to avoid burning, stirring constantly.
  • Parley adds freshness but can be omitted or substituted with other herbs like chives or thyme.
  • For a dairy-free version, use vegan butter or olive oil but note the flavor difference.
  • The miso butter can be adjusted in quantity depending on your flavor preference.
