Ingredients:
½ cabbage or collard greens
3 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil
2 cloves of chopped garlic
1 pinch of black pepper
1 pinch of salt
Instructions:
-Preheat the oven to 180 ºC; this will be the first step to prepare the oven-roasted cabbage. Remove all the old cabbage leaves and then cut the vegetable into slices about 1 cm thick.
-Careful not to break them, place the cabbage slices on the oven rack previously lined with parchment paper.
Tip: Place the cabbage slices together on the rack so that they do not burn so quickly when roasting.
-In a bowl, mix all the seasonings: oil, garlic, pepper, and salt. Then spread the vegetables with this mixture with the help of a spoon or a kitchen brush and then put the cabbage in the oven at 180 °C for 20 minutes connecting the fan if possible, or until it is soft in the center and crispy around the edges.
-If your oven does not have the fan function open the door for a moment after the first 10 minutes of cooking to remove excess steam and close it again, this way, you will get a crispy oven-roasted cabbage, and it will not taste as if it was just cooked.
Tip: If you have oil spray, you can use it when seasoning the baked cabbage; it is much faster than brushing it.
-After the indicated time, the light baked cabbage recipe will be ready. You can serve it as a starter or accompaniment to your favorite meals, such as orange chicken thighs or whole baked sea bass with potatoes.
-And if you love this vegetable, be sure to try this stewed cabbage recipe another time to cook it in a different, original, and equally tasty way.
Enjoy !
