Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 head cabbage
  • 3 ounces sharp white cheddar grated
  • 1/2 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoons EACH salt and pepper
  • ¼ cup breadcrumbs
  • ¼ cup finely chopped parsley

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425°F. Cut the cabbage in half, keeping the core intact, then cut the one half into 4 wedges (save the rest for another side dish). Place the wedges on the baking sheet and roast for about 30-35 minutes, flipping once carefully halfway through cooking. This will make the cabbage nice and crispy and golden.
  • Mix together the shredded cheese and cornstarch in a bowl.
  • While the cabbage cooks, heat a saucepan over medium heat. Add the butter and melt. Add the heavy cream, Dijon, salt and pepper. Whisk and heat until steaming. Then add the cheese and whisk until smooth. Set aside.
  • In a pan, mix the breadcrumbs and parsley. Season with salt and pepper. Heat over medium, stirring occasionally, until the breadcrumbs are lightly toasted, about 3-4 minutes. Set aside.
  • When the cabbage is done, remove it from the oven. You might need to reheat your cheese sauce if it’s been set aside for more than a few minutes. Add a teaspoon or two of water to smooth it out. Transfer the cabbage wedges to a serving platter. Pour on the cheese sauce. Top with the toasted breadcrumb mixture.
