5 from 1 vote

This roasted cabbage recipe is easy and absolutely amazing! When you have humble ingredients like cabbage, you need to be precise with seasoning to enhance it as much as possible. In this recipe I went for za'atar seasoning (typically a mediterranean spice made up of of thyme, sumac, sesame seeds) to elevate this cabbage. The key

I thought why not add the figs, and make a quick sauce out of roasted garlic, yogurt, and veganaise. Only a few ingredients but they really shined all together. I hope you enjoy it!
