Top tips for making roasted cabbage wedges
This recipe can be adapted to use with Savoy cabbage or Brussels sprouts, but cook them in a pan and toss in the seeds.
Instead of cutting the roasted cabbage into wedges, you could also try cutting it into thick steaks and serve them as part of a vegetarian main meal.
