Braised Red Cabbage
Report
For me Christmas wouldn’t be the same without braised red cabbage. Plus it’s really easy to make and it’s a great make ahead dish for Christmas and beyond!

Ingredients
- 500 g red cabbage sliced finely
- salt
- black pepper
- 2 red onion diced finely, small or 1 large
- 1 apple diced finely, large, Bramley variety
- 1 clove garlic diced finely or crushed
- ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 4 cloves ground
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 3 tablespoons red wine vinegar or white wine vinegar
- 10 g butter
Instructions
- Prepare all your ingredients as directed above. Mix together the ground spices and brown sugar in a bowl. Preheat your oven to 160C / 140C fan / gas mark 3 / 325F.
- Arrange about a quarter of the cabbage at the bottom of a large casserole dish
- Sprinkle over about a third of the onions, a third of the apple, a third of the garlic and a third of the sugar and spice mix. Add a few twists of salt and pepper.
- Add another layer of cabbage, followed by another layer of onions, apple, garlic, spices, salt and pepper.
- Repeat a third time and then top with the remaining red cabbage.
- Pour over 3 tablespoons of red or white wine vinegar (this will help preserve the colour of the cabbage, so don’t miss this step out!) and dot with approximately 10g of butter.
- Put a tight lid on the casserole dish (use foil if you don’t have a lid) and cook in your pre-heated oven for 2½ hours, stirring twice during cooking time.
- Serve immediately or leave to cool then store in an airtight container in the fridge for a day or two.
Notes
- To reheat, simply place in a saucepan with approximately 100ml water and heat gently with a lid on until the cabbage is hot (about 5 minutes).
- Suitable for freezing.
