Made this recipe?
A sharp, tangy dressing made with cider vinegar and wholegrain mustard, perfect for cutting through rich grilled meats.
Prepare the Cabbage and Apple
Toss the red cabbage wedges and apple rings in olive oil, ensuring they are lightly coated. Season generously with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper on all sides. This will help to create a good char and prevent sticking on the grill.
Grill over Direct Heat
Place the cabbage wedges and apple rings directly over the hot coals. Grill for 5-7 minutes per side, until you have a deep, dark char and the cabbage is just starting to wilt and become tender. The apple should be soft but still hold its shape.
Rest and Serve
Remove from the grill and serve immediately. The residual heat will continue to soften the cabbage. This side is best served warm, alongside the main dish.
