Ingredients

Method

  1. Cut the cabbages in half and wash under cold running water. Allow to drip dry.

  2. Cook the new potatoes in a saucepan of boiling salted water until tender (about 7–8 minutes). Drain and set aside to cool.

  3. Whisk the soy, miso, honey, egg yolk and oil together to make a thick glaze. Set aside.

  4. In a small saucepan mix the vinegar and sugar with 200ml/7oz water. Add the salt and mustard seeds. Bring to the boil and cook until the sugar has dissolved.

  5. Cut the new potatoes into bite-sized chunks. Mix with the radishes, carrots and fennel. Add the pickle liquor and mix well.

  6. Heat a little oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat. Add the cabbage halves cut-side down and fry gently until golden brown and tender to the touch or cooked through. Brush all over with the soy glaze and finish the cabbage under a hot grill for 2–3 minutes. (You will have some glaze leftover.)

  7. To serve, put a cabbage half in the centre of each plate. Spoon the pickled vegetables around them. Put a dollop of the glaze on the side for dipping. Garnish with fresh herbs.
