Cabbage and Cheddar Gratin

Serves 4

This savory side is perfect paired with corned beef or as a hearty vegetarian entree. To serve 8 or 10, simply double the recipe and bake it in a 9- x 13-inch casserole dish instead. It's filling and satisfying enough to help you budget bully a single corned beef brisket into serving a big crowd.

Ingredients

1 1/4 cups shredded Australian cheddar, divided
3 cups (about 1/2 head) chopped green cabbage
3/4 cup vegetable broth
1/2 cup medium-grind yellow cornmeal
3 tablespoons mixed chopped herbs, such as parsley, dill and thyme
2 tablespoons dijon mustard
Salt and ground black pepper to taste

Method

Preheat oven to 350°F. Set aside 1/4 cup of the cheese. Toss remaining ingredients together in a large bowl and transfer to an 8-inch square baking dish. Cover with foil and bake 45 minutes. Uncover, top with reserved cheese and bake until golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes more.
