Stuffed cabbage in the Troo style from Tamasin Day-Lewis’s Good-Tempered Food, (but is in fact a Jane Grigson recipe) was such an auspicious dish. It is layers of blanched savoy cabbage and good quality sausage meat, seasoned and dotted with butter, baked in a moderate oven for two hours. Less a vegan sausage casserole and more of a bake, this nonetheless produces a delicious "jus" which is perfect poured over the top.

I veganised this family favourite by using vegan sausages (my favourite are those made by Linda McCartney) and, of course, vegan butter!

Vegan Sausage Cabbage Bake

I added my own Irish touch to this by putting a couple of layers of sliced potatoes on the top which crisped up around the edges.

It is a sensational tasting dish for such simple ingredients and it takes no time at all to prepare. I serve it with some fresh boiled carrots and some simple green beans. If you omit the sliced potatoes, it is delicious with mashed potato too, with the vegan sausagy-cabbagy cooking liquor that has congregated at the bottom of the dish poured over the top.

This is also a great way to persuade cabbage hating children (or adults!) to rethink their ideas about this under loved brassica!

Ingredients

Vegan Sausage Cabbage Bake
  • Cabbage. Use Savoy or similar, it has a better flavour than white cabbage. Red cabbage won't work.
  • Vegan Sausages. I use THIS brand, but Richmond also make great vegan sausages. Use your favourite brand.
  • Vegan Butter. Use your favourite brand.
  • Salt and Pepper.
  • Potato, peeled and cut into thin slices. This is optional but it adds a delicious topping.

Vegan Sausage Cabbage Bake

Method

Sausage layered on cabbage
  • Cut the cabbage into thick slices and parboil until almost cooked.
  • Drain, leave to cool whilst prepping the sausage.
  • Many vegan sausages have a "skin" on them now so, taking a sharp knife, run it down the side of the sausage and peel off the skin.
  • Flatten the sausages.
  • Assemble your ingredients. You will be layering up the cabbage and sausage with seasoning and butter on each layer.
  • Using a round baking dish, about 8" dia. first place a layer of cabbage, enough to cover the bottom of the dish.
  • Place three of the flattened vegan sausages on the cabbage layer and dot with butter. Season.
  • Repeat this cabbage/sausage layer, then finish with a layer of cabbage.
  • Place the layer of sliced potatoes on top (if using), seasoning once more, and dotting with butter.
  • Bake in a low temperature oven (about 150c) for at least an hour, but more is better, up to 3 hours.
  • Once baked, remove from oven and leave to cool for 10 minutes, just to setup, then cut into wedges and serve.
  • You can also cover with foil and, when cold, refrigerate for the next day.

Vegan Sausage and Cabbage Bake

YIELD 4
Prep Time: 15 minutes minutes
Cook Time: 1 hour hour
Total Time: 1 hour hour 15 minutes minutes
A two ingredient simple supper dish, easy to prepare ahead, full of flavour

Equipment

  • Round Baking Dish, roughly 8" dia you can also use square or oval!

Ingredients

  • Savoy Cabbage large, shredded thickly
  • 6 Vegan Sausages thawed
  • 1 Potato peeled, thinly sliced (optional)
  • Salt and Pepper
  • 1 tablespoon Butter vegan

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 160c.
  • Grease the bottom and sides of a round, roughly 8" ovenproof dish, with a lid
  • Bring a large pan of unsalted water to the boil. Throw in the shredded cabbage and cook until just tender but still bright green.
  • Drain and plunge into cold water.
  • Put a third of the cabbage (squeezing out the water first) in the bottom of your dish. Season well and dot with vegan butter.
  • Add half the vegan sausages, flattened with the palm of your hand, to make a sausage layer.
  • Repeat, using up all the sausages, remembering to season the layers of cabbage, and ending with a layer of cabbage (you can now add a layer of sliced potatoes if you want).
  • Dot the final layer of cabbage with butter, cover with greaseproof paper, and replace the lid.
  • Bake in the oven for at least 1 hours but will happily sit there for 2.
  • Serve with some simple boiled vegetables. The cabbage and sausage will produce a delicious liquor which can be poured over everything else.

    This is so comforting, I love it on a cold evening. Is there a particular brand of vegan butter that you recommend using?

    I have been doing this thing where I eat vegan once a week on Friday. I made this last Friday and it was a hit! My husband who usually wants meat in everything was super impressed. Thank you so much for a great recipe 🙂

    I loved how easy this vegan sausage and cabbage bake was to make. We aren't full time vegans but I try to have 2 to 3 days a week that are meatless. This was a great choice. Will make it again!
