Method

1. Heat the oven to 200°C fan-forced and slowly heat a cast iron or heavy based pan on the stove.
2. Place the cabbage wedges into the dry pan cut-side-down. Place some weight on top to push the cabbage down. You can do this with a small tray and something heavy like a pot.
3. Cook for a few minutes or until well charred. Turn the cabbage pieces over, cover and continue to cook for another few minutes charring the other side.
4. To make the miso butter, mix everything together in a bowl except for the water. Add the hot water (a spoonful at a time) to loosen until it reaches a yoghurt consistency.
5. Uncover the cabbage and pour the miso butter mix evenly over the top.
6. Cover the cabbage again and place in the oven. Cook for 15–20 minutes or until the cabbage is tender.
7. In the last few minutes of cooking, remove the lid and allow it to colour on top. Sprinkle toasted sesame seeds over the top to garnish.
