I love roasting cabbage! Crispy and charred on the outside, soft and Silke on the inside but still with a bite. It goes super well with Asian flavours and this miso peanut sauce hits the spot! Add a squeeze of lime for extra zing, some crunchy toasted peanuts for bite and of course koriander for fresh herbiness.
