Charred Cabbage With Goat Cheese Raita And Cucumbers Recipes

Steps:

• Pulse garlic, goat cheese, yogurt, 1 cup mint, 1 cup parsley, 2 Tbsp. oil, and 1 Tbsp. lemon juice in a food processor until smooth and pale green. Transfer raita to a medium bowl; season with salt.
• Prepare a grill for medium heat. Cut cabbage in half through core. Cut each half into 3 wedges, keeping core intact. Drizzle wedges with oil to coat and season all over with salt. Grill until deeply charred on all sides (pretty much blackened) and a paring knife easily slips through the center, 8-10 minutes per side. Transfer to a cutting board and let cool 5 minutes (this also allows the cabbage to steam and become tender on the inside). Cut each wedge in half crosswise.
• Toss cucumbers, remaining 1 cup mint, remaining 1 cup parsley, and remaining 1 Tbsp. lemon juice in a medium bowl. Season salad with a big pinch of salt and toss again.
• Spread raita over plates; place a few pieces of cabbage on each. Top with salad and Corn Nuts. Sprinkle with Aleppo-style pepper; drizzle with more oil.
• Do Ahead
• Raita can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill.

Steps:

• Set up your grill for even high heat. If using a charcoal grill, distribute the coals evenly. If using a gas grill, heat both sides evenly.
• Drizzle the cabbage wedges with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Place onto the grill and close the lid. Cook until the cabbage is charred and softened, flipping halfway, about 5 minutes per side.
