 1 tablespoon plus 2 more tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 

 1 medium head green cabbage, cut into 1-inch-thick rounds

DIRECTION

1. I put the carrots with the cabbage and cooked them together.

 Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Brush a rimmed baking sheet with 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil. Place 1 medium head green cabbage, cut into 1-inch-thick rounds, in a single layer on sheet and brush with 2 tablespoons oil. Season with coarse salt and ground pepper and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon caraway or fennel seeds. Roast until cabbage is tender and edges are golden, 40 to 45 minutes. 

Traditional Irish Apple Pie by Allie Roomberg, on Mar 07, 2018.

INGREDIENTS

 • 1/2 batch Simply Perfect Pie Crust*

 • 8 Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, and grated

 • 1/4 cup water

 • 6 large egg yolks

 • 1 cup granulated sugar, divided

 • Juice of 1 lemon

 • 6 large egg whites

DIRECTIONS

 1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

 2 Roll out the pie dough to a few inches larger than your pie dish.

 3 Transfer the dough to the pie dish, trim off any excess, and crimp the edge.

 4 Par-bake the pie crust for 10 minutes.

 5 Place the grated apples and water in a large pot, cover, and cook over medium-low heat until tender (about 15 minutes).

 6 Whisk the yolks, 3/4 cup of the sugar, and lemon juice together in a small bowl, and stir the mixture into the cooked apples (off the heat).

 7 Transfer the apple filling to the prepared crust, and bake for an additional 30 minutes, or until the filling is set and the edges of the crust are golden.

 8 Cool completely.

 9 Whip the egg whites and remaining 1/4 cup of sugar together until the meringue holds stiff peaks.

 10 Spoon the meringue onto the cooled pie and brown with a brulee torch, or under the broiler for 3 to 5 minutes.
