Vietnamese Roasted Cabbage

50mI never knew cabbage could become such a delicious entree until I tried this recipe. Cooking the cabbage on high heat in the oven creates delicious crispy edges on flavorful tender pieces of cabbage. Served with Vietnamese Nuoc Cham inspired sauce drizzled over rice and you have a filling meal.
