Hasperat is a popular Bajoran dish from the Star Trek universe. Any trekkie should be familiar with this dish! It is known to be notoriously spicy and resembles a burrito-like vegetable wrap. This is the perfect dish to much on especially when (re)watching or binging on Star Trek episodes.

Soak the Cabbage

  • Press down on the cabbages so all surfaces are covered.
  • Soak the cabbage in the brine for 3-4 days.

Assembling the Hasperat

  • Layer the Napa cabbage on the tortilla wrap or pita bread
  • Add the chilli peppers and Sriracha hot sauce. I opted out of the chilli peppers since I already used spicy vinegar and I have a low tolerance for spicy food. (I know, I cheated).
  • Optionally, add cheese, and spinach. This isn't quite Bajoran-style, but they do make it yummy!
  • Roll it up to a burrito

Enjoy your Hasperat while watching a nice episode of Star Trek TNG!
