Tips:

  • Choose the right cabbage: Select a firm, compact cabbage with tightly packed leaves. Avoid heads that are loose or have brown spots.
  • Cut the cabbage into even wedges: This will help them cook evenly. Cut the cabbage in half from top to bottom, then cut each half into 4 or 6 wedges.
  • Marinate the cabbage wedges: This will help them absorb flavor and stay moist during grilling. You can use a simple marinade made with olive oil, vinegar, salt, and pepper, or you can get creative and add other ingredients like herbs, spices, or citrus juice.
  • Grill the cabbage wedges over medium heat: This will help them cook through without burning. Grill the wedges for about 10 minutes per side, or until they are tender and slightly charred.
  • Serve the cabbage wedges hot: They can be served as a side dish or a main course. You can also add them to salads, tacos, or sandwiches.

Conclusion:

Grilled cabbage wedges are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are a good source of vitamins, minerals, and fiber, and they can be cooked in a variety of ways. Whether you are looking for a healthy side dish or a flavorful main course, grilled cabbage wedges are a great option.
