A great alternative to sprouts.
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp butter, plus a little extra to garnish (optional)
- 1 medium red onion, chopped
- 1 cooking apple, peeled, cored and very roughly diced
- 1 small to medium red cabbage, up to 1kg, thinly sliced
- 3 tbsp cider vinegar
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tsp salt
- 3 cloves
- Handful dried fruit such as raisins, or even apricots
Method
- 1. Preheat the oven to 150°C/fan130°C/gas 2. Melt the butter in a casserole or large baking tray and fry the onion until tender, without letting it brown. Add the other ingredients, stir well and add 100ml of water. Cover with foil or a lid and cook in the oven for 30 minutes – check it after 15 minutes – until the cabbage is soft, sweet and sour. Check the seasoning. You may wish to serve it garnished with extra butter.
