# How to Make It:

02 - Arrange cabbage wedges on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, then season evenly with salt and pepper.
03 - Roast for 25-30 minutes, flipping wedges halfway through cooking, until edges are golden brown and cabbage is tender with crisped edges.
04 - While cabbage roasts, whisk together tahini, grated garlic, lemon juice, cumin, and salt in a bowl. Gradually whisk in cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until sauce reaches smooth, pourable consistency.
