Preparation

Step 1

Preheat grill.

In the bowl of a food processor
or blender combine the lime juice, olive oil, fish sauce, garlic, cilantro,
salt, cayenne and sugar and pulse or blend until the sauce is pale orange color
in color. Set aside.

Place the wedges on the grill
and cover. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes or until the edges of each layer are
blackened and the cabbage is beginning to soften. Flip each wedge over,
cover the grill, and cook for an additional 5 to 7 minutes on the other
side. Remove the cabbage when it is beginning to wilt, but is still firm
in the middle. If necessary, turn the heat down or move the wedges to a
cooler part of the grill so they don't burn. Don't be afraid of the
blackened edges; you want a lot of grill and char marks on the cabbage.

Take the cabbage off the grill
and place on a serving plate. Pour the dressing over the top of the
cabbage and serve immediately with wedges of lime.
