4 servings
- 1 small head green cabbage (about 2 lb), cut into 6 wedges through the core
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- ½ tsp fine sea salt
- 4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
- ¼ tsp ground turmeric
- ¼ tsp ground ginger
- 3 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 1 tbsp honey
Chef's tipUse the same amount. Maple syrup is a little thinner and less sticky than honey. - 1 cup bone broth
Chef's tipUse the same amount of low-sodium vegetable broth. It won't give the body or richness of bone broth, so it's best where broth is mainly a cooking liquid or flavor base. - 4 sprigs fresh thyme
- 1–2 tbsp fresh flat-leaf parsley, roughly chopped (optional)
Instructions
- 1
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Cut the cabbage through the core into 6 wedges, keeping the core intact so the leaves hold together.

Heat the olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet or braising pan over medium-high heat until shimmering. Season the cabbage wedges on the cut sides with the salt, then place them cut-side down in the pan in a single layer. Sear undisturbed for 3 to 4 minutes until the cut face is deep golden brown, then flip to the second cut side and sear for another 3 minutes until golden. Transfer the seared wedges to a plate.
