Ingredients

  • 100 gsalted butter
  • 2 tbspharissa ((we used rose harissa))
  • 1lemon, zested and juiced
  • 2 clovesgarlic, crushed
  • small handfulparsley, finely chopped
  • 1pointed spring cabbage
  • 1 tbspneutral oil
  • 200 gthick Greek yogurt
  • 50 gcrispy onions

Instructions

  1. 1

    Melt the butter in a saucepan, then add the harissa, lemon zest, lemon juice and garlic, and cook for 2-3 mins, until sizzling. Season with pepper and stir in most of the parsley, reserving a little to garnish.

  2. 2

    Wash and discard any damaged or blemished outer leaves of the cabbage. Cut in half, keeping the root intact, then cut each half into 2 wedges, keeping the root attached to each end. Carefully thread onto metal skewers, brush each wedge with the harissa butter, then set aside on a baking tray.

  3. 3

    Brush the neutral oil over the bars of the barbecue and grill the cabbage, brushing with the butter occasionally, turning carefully every 3-5 mins, until soft and charred all over. Alternatively, you can cook these under a hot grill.

  4. 4

    Spread the yogurt out on a serving platter and top with the skewers, drizzling over any remaining butter, then scatter with the crispy onions and reserved parsley.
