Step 1
Start by heating your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lining a baking sheet with parchment paper. Slice the cabbage into four wedges by cutting straight down through the core. In a small bowl, mix together the Thai sweet chili sauce and Sriracha until well combined. Arrange the cabbage wedges on the baking sheet and brush half of the sauce evenly over the tops. Pop them in the oven and roast for about 10 minutes. While that’s cooking, turn on your broiler to high. Once the initial roasting is done, give the cabbage another good brush with the remaining sauce, then place it under the broiler for around 5 minutes to get those edges nice and caramelized. Keep an eye on them so they don’t burn, and enjoy!

How to serve

Storage & leftovers
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in the oven or on a skillet to maintain crispness. Avoid microwaving, as it can make the cabbage soggy.
