Harissa hispi cabbage
Ingredients
- 20g butter
- 2 cans butter beans drained & rinsed
- 200ml vegetable stock
- 3 tbsp tahini
- 2 hispi cabbages, quartered
- 100ml vegetable stock
- 100g butter softened
- 4 tbsp harissa paste
- Juice of 1 lime
- 4 garlic cloves, grated
Steps
- Melt the butter in a large pan over a medium heat.
- Add the butter beans, vegetable stock and a good pinch of salt, then bring everything to a light simmer.
- Cook until the butter beans are tender. Transfer to a blender along with the tahini and blend until smooth and creamy.
- Taste and adjust the seasoning, if needed, then keep warm over a low heat until ready to serve.
- Next, heat a good glug of neutral oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat. Add the hispi cabbage wedges and fry for 4-5 minutes each side, until starting to brown.
- Pour in the vegetable stock and simmer until the stock has evaporated.
- In a small bowl, combine the butter, harissa, lime juice, garlic and a good pinch of salt.
- Spoon the mixture around the pan, allowing it to melt into the cabbage, and cook for a further 4-5 minutes, turning regularly, until caramelised and tender.
- Spread the butter bean mash over the bottom of two plates.
- Arrange the hispi cabbage on top and drizzle with any sauce left in the pan.
