**Braising liquid:**

 

2x Hispi cabbage, cut in halves

500g Veg stock

125ml Pillars Pilsner

50g White miso

25g Smoked garlic

125g Extra virgin olive oil

30g Cider

 

 

**Method:**

 

Bring stock to a simmer together with smoked garlic, miso, vinegar, salt and beer. Emulsify with olive oil using a stick blender.

Half the cabbages and char on a bbq or in a pan. Transfer the cabbage to a suitable baking tray.

Pour the hot braising liquid over the cabbage. Cover with tinfoil and cook in the oven at 180-190 °C for 35-40 min.

**Plating Up:**

 

Serve with celeriac or mint puree, a tomato, caramel and Urfa chilli dressing, along with toasted hazelnuts.

**Pair with Pillars Pilsner:**

Pairs exceptionally well with Pillars Pilsner, the same beer used in the cooking process, to create a beautiful echo of flavour. The lager's clean, crisp profile complements the dish's umami richness while its subtle malt sweetness enhances the caramelised cabbage. The beer's carbonation refreshes the palate between bites, making each mouthful as special as the first.
