Easy Oven Roasted Red Cabbage Recipe

Here is a surprisingly easy vegetable roast recipe then! Roasted red cabbage with creamy tarragon butter, what a great vegetable dish!

And I have a good idea what great vegetable side will also appear on our dinner table for Thanksgiving this year.

I am definitely in! Are you?

Seriously?

Roasted red cabbage?

Well why not!

Head of Cabbage

And here is why.

Whenever I buy one whole head of red cabbage, then both the hubs and I know that we will be eating cabbage for one week straight from that moment on. Those puppies are not small. However we don’t mind because I really love cabbage.

And by that I mean any type of cabbage in general.

So it is just a matter of trying to find different ways, ideas and recipes to prepare it.

Jump on the red cabbage brainstorm train with me!

Easy Oven Roasted Red Cabbage Recipe

I already prepared and published a bunch of recipes with red cabbage here on my blog.

Let’s take a look at a few!

What do you think of red cabbage soup with blue cheese? That is one of the most popular recipe on my website by the way! You will also love my pickled red cabbage for hotdogs and tacos! I love that crunch of the cabbage.

And it looks spectacular as well!

Oh and another one: my braised red cabbage in kriek beer!

Red Cabbage Recipes

I am also thinking of red cabbage and bacon, red cabbage au gratin and red cabbage risotto!

I once tasted a rich radicchio risotto with butter and parmesan cheese but because I can’t find radicchio around here, I think I should just give it a try with red cabbage!

So how about that?

I still had some tarragon butter left after preparing baked sweet onions so I used that to top this roasted cabbage with.

What an excellent flavor match!

Enjoy!

• 2 tbsp unsalted butter
• 2 tbsp fresh tarragon leaves
• olive oil

2. Then sprinkle the wedges with olive oil and season with a dash of pepper and salt. Sprinkle with the dried herbs and add the cloves. Pour in the vegetable stock.

   

3. Cover the baking dish with aluminium foil. Secure it tightly around the edges.

   

4. Bake the cabbage in a preheated oven at 460°F (230°C) for 30 minutes. Then remove the foil. Roast the cabbage for 30 more minutes. Combine the butter and tarragon in a small bowl. Season with pepper and salt. Once the cabbage is roasted, remove it from the oven. Top the cabbage with the tarragon butter. Serve hot.
