CABBAGE WEDGES WITH CHEESE SAUCE
We celebrate St Patrick's Day with a big meal each year and cabbage usually plays some part in the feast. One year, a guest brought this cabbage dish to share and it was a big hit. She originally found the recipe in an issue of Taste of Home magazine. The chili sauce called for in this recipe is not particularly spicy (although hot versions are also sold) and is usually sold in a bottle in the ketchup aisle in US supermarkets. The brand I most often have used is Heinz.

Tips:
- Choose the right cabbage: Select a firm, compact head of green or Savoy cabbage. Avoid heads with brown or wilted leaves.
- Shred the cabbage thinly: This will help it cook evenly and absorb the cheese sauce better.
- Use a good quality cheese: A sharp cheddar or Gruyère cheese will give the sauce a rich, flavorful taste.
- Make the cheese sauce ahead of time: This will give the flavors time to meld and will make the assembly process easier.
- Don't overcook the cabbage: It should be tender but still slightly crunchy.
- Serve the cabbage with cheese sauce immediately: This will ensure that the cheese sauce is hot and melted.
