Roasted Cabbage Carbonara Recipe

Roasted Cabbage slices has become an extremely popular recipe around the internet! This is my favorite recipe hack: turn it into noodles!! You can use it with pretty much any pasta sauce. This is my favorite one Roasted Cabbage Carbonara.

Ingredients

  • 1 small green cabbage
  • 4 cloves of garlic, peeled.
  • ¼ cup EVOO
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • Sauce
  • 2 pastured egg yolks
  • 8 slices of uncured bacon ( or guanciale if you can find it)
  • 4 Tbs organic butter, melted
  • ½ tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • ⅓ cup coconut cream, melted
  • Celtic Sea Salt to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F.
  2. Remove the cabbage outer leaves and trim off the hard part at the bottom.
  3. Slice the cabbage in ½ inch thick slices and lay it on a pre-oiled cookie sheet.
  4. You might need to use several cookie sheets to accommodate the whole cabbage.
  5. Now in a small food processor mix the garlic cloves with the olive oil and the salt, until they form a smooth, runny paste.
  6. With a pastry brush, brush the paste onto the cabbage slices evenly.
  7. Put the cabbage in the oven and bake for about 30 minutes, turning the slices once and brushing the other side with more oil.
  8. While the cabbage cooks prepare the Carbonara sauce.
  9. Cut the bacon into small pieces, about 1” wide, then put in a frying pan and cook on a moderate flame until crispy, then drain from fat and set aside.
  10. In a large bowl whisk together the eggs, melted butter, coconut cream, salt and pepper, to form a smooth cream.
  11. The cream should be quite peppery, that is why the name carbonara, which means full of coals, you can add more fresh pepper if you like it spicy.
  12. As soon as the cabbage is ready, it should be well cooked and caramelized with slightly burnt edges, toss it in the bowl with the Carbonara sauce and the bacon pieces.
  13. Serve immediately while still very hot!
