"Cabbage is sexy. That sounds so wrong, but cooked like this, hispi is the sexiest 'sweetheart' of the cabbage family. Paired with butter beans, it's unbelievable as a main or as a side. When vegetables are celebrated like this, they have the power to steal the limelight from any joint of juicy meat"

Ingredients

1 tbsp rapeseed (canola Oil)
1 hispi (also known as pointed or sweetheart) cabbage (about 400g/14oz), cut lengthways into quarters, core and all
40ml (1 ½ fl. oz) water
4 spring onions (scallions), finely chopped
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
3cm (1 ¼ inch) piece of fresh ginger, peeled and grated
2 tbsp light soy sauce
1 tbsp oyster sauce
1 tsp sesame oil

For the Tahini Butter Beans

1 x 600g (1lb 5oz) butter beans, drained and rinsed
100g (3 ½ oz) frozen peas, thawed
100g (3 ½ oz) edamame beans (optional)
2 tbsp tahini (ensure runny)
juice of ½ lime
Pinch of sea salt

To garnish

2 tbsp chilli oil
2 tbsp mixed sesame seeds
1 tbsp crushed peanuts (optional)

Directions

Mix together all the ingredients for the tahini butter beans and set aside.
Next, rub a little of the oil all over the cabbage wedges. Hear a large non-stick frying pan (that has a lid) over a medium-high heat, then when hot, add the wedges, of a flat side. Leave to cook without moving them for 2-3 minutes until charred, then flip to the other flat side. Once charred, flip onto the rounded side, add the eater, cover with a lid and leave to steam for 5 minutes. Remove and set aside on a plate.
To the same pan, add the remaining oil and stir-fry the spring onions, garlic and ginger for about 2 minutes. Add the soy and oyster sauces with a splash of water to loosen, let this bubble for about 1 minute, then return the cabbage to the pan to coat. Take off the heat and drizzle over the sesame oil.
To assemble, spoon the tahini butter beans and peas onto a large platter, arrange the cabbage wedges on top, drizzle over some chilli oil, and sprinkle over the sesame seeds and crushed peanuts (if using).
