This Asian-inspired combination of prawns, ginger and chilli is an instant favourite. Succulent seafood gets even more delicious with a spicy kick, perfect with the milder Chinese cabbage. Chilli langoustine salad will definitely give you a hot experience on a cold day.

Prawn, papaya, raspberry and red cabbage salad is bright, sweet, and refreshing. The light prawn meat is perfect with these succulent fruits, and red cabbage adds some beautiful earthiness. Perfect for a light lunch.

Finely slice a medium-sized cabbage. Mix 50ml extra virgin olive oil and 25ml white balsamic vinegar (regular balsamic discolours the cabbage and doesn’t have the same clean flavour) in a bowl. Add a large pinch of coarse salt and crushed pepper to taste. Mix and add to the cabbage, tossing well before serving. Serve cool, straight from the fridge.
Craving a wrap but trying to cut down on carbs? Maybe you just want a new, creative way to use cabbage. Well stuffed cabbage leaves are a delicious variation on these rich green veggies. Packed with flavour and filling, they’re perfect for a light lunch.
Stuffed cabbage rolls with polenta and sour cream are a deliciously light dish.
Grilled venison with cabbage, lemon grass and coconut samp is a real taste explosion. It might seem unusual to pair gamey meat with such tropical flavours, but the two actually go together beautifully. Succulent rich meat and fresh samp will be your new favourite dish!
