Roasted red potatoes and cabbage are equal parts healthy and comforting. To make this easy side dish, generous wedges of lemon- and oregano-spiked cabbage and red potatoes get roasted in the oven and then drizzled with a creamy homemade Cilantro-Cashew Dressing.

  1. Hello: Thanks for the recipe! As a Vegan, I’m always looking for more useful recipes, especially with potatoes and/or cabbage.
    We liked the meal. I didn’t use cashews and added fresh garlic to baking. Stay safe.

  2. I don’t know what traditional Irish cooking would be. Thanks for this recipe. I’ll add these ingredients to my grocery list. Thanks! The person dropping the F bomb could give a traditional Irish recipe! That would be nicer than useless criticism.

  3. The cabbage was quite firm & uncooked leaving the core in even when I baked everything 10 minutes longer. I used a vegan aioli sauce on the potatoes and that was excellent.

  4. Ha! Cilantro is not exactly part of traditional Irish fare. However, cilantro is so strong and distinctive tasting. I’m not sure there is a real substitute for this in the dressing. This recipe does sound delicious, thanks.

  5. This is what my beloved and I, call “pub food” as I cut the potatoes into wedges and bake them separately from the cabbage. I only cover the cabbage with alufoil, not the baking tray with the potato wedges. And it’s delicious with tofu ” sourcream”. To avoid sticking to the baking trays, I use baking paper.
    We love this recipe, the cabbage is to tender and juicy.

  6. I made this with sweet potatoes. Instead of the dressing I used plant butter since I am allergic to nuts. This is a warm and satisfying dish.

  7. Pros: easy to throw together, cabbage does get very tender, potatoes were yummy.
    Cons: hard to evenly distribute seasonings, cabbage did not fit well in pan, flavorings seemed too strong, took considerably longer to cook (about an hour and a half), and it also took a long time to scrub out the pan, even though I soaked it overnight. I might try this again with completely different seasonings and a smaller cabbage.
