Roasted Savoy Cabbage With Black Bean-Garlic Sauce

Submitted by Manami

"Roasting any vegetable brings out its rich, nutty flavor, as it does with the Savoy cabbage. This recipe would be perfect with green cabbage as well. This is a very easy recipe and makes for a nice side dish. Found this in Eating Well Newsletter 06/02/2007."

Delish and so easy to make as well. Only changes I made was to use just a bit of oil spray instead of the canola oil- in an attempt to cut down on fat; and I also used some hot chili paste instead of hot sauce. Yum! I served this over brown rice with baked tofu for a super easy dinner. Thanks for posting, this is a keeper.

Excellent! I could have eaten the whole lot of it! My oven doesn't go up as high as 500F so I roasted it at 200C (400F) for a bit longer. I also used red chillies from a jar instead of Tabasco and didn't even have scallions to put in there. Didn't even miss them! Wonderful!

I enjoyed this for a change of pace. I especially liked the little bits that got brown and a little crisp. I wasn't overly fond of the taste the rice wine gave it.
