Vegetables

Potato Confit

Cider Reduction

Method

Charred Cabbage

  1. 1

    Prepare the Cabbage

    Preheat a grill or grill pan over high heat. Cut the cabbage into wedges and brush with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.

  2. 2

    Grill the Cabbage

    Place the cabbage wedges on the hot grill and char for about 4-5 minutes per side, until they are tender and have nice grill marks. Remove from heat and set aside.

Potato Confit

  1. 3

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel and slice the potatoes into thin rounds. In a saucepan, combine the olive oil, garlic cloves, and thyme. Heat over low heat until aromatic.

  2. 4

    Cook the Potatoes

    Add the sliced potatoes to the saucepan and cook gently for about 30-40 minutes, until tender but not falling apart. Remove from heat and let them rest in the oil.

Cider Reduction

  1. 5

    Create the Reduction

    In a saucepan, bring the apple cider to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat and simmer until it reduces by half, about 15-20 minutes.

  2. 6

    Finish the Sauce

    Stir in the butter, honey, and a pinch of salt. Mix until smooth and remove from heat.

Assembly

  1. 7

    Plate the Dish

    On a serving plate, arrange the charred cabbage wedges, top with potato confit, and drizzle the cider reduction over the top. Serve warm.
