How to Make Braised Red Cabbage
- 1Heat a very large heavy-based pan. Add the butter and once it has melted, tip in the red cabbage and onions. Sauté over a medium to high heat for about 10 minutes until just beginning to soften.
- 2Stir the apple into the cabbage mixture and then add the pomegranate or cranberry juice, balsamic vinegar, sugar and spices
- 3Bring to the boil, stirring occasionally, then reduce the heat and simmer for about 1 hour over a low heat, stirring every 20 minutes until the cabbage is meltingly tender.
- 4Transfer to a warmed dish and serve at once.
- 5This would be delicious as a side order or serve with baked jacket potatoes with a dollop of soured cream and chives for a light supper
