Finni's Braised Cabbage

​This delicious, tangy red cabbage makes a great side dish with savoury beef dishes and was a traditional vegetable my mother 'Finni' served with stuffed turkey too.

Ingredients

  • 2 T bacon drippings or vegetable oil
  • 1 medium head red cabbage, about 2 1/2 pounds
  • 3 large apples
  • 1 medium onion, peeled
  • 1/2 C red wine vinegar
  • 1 whole clove
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 t salt
  • 1/8 t ground pepper
  • 1/2 t sugar
  • diced cooked bacon, optional

Directions

  • Remove outer leaves of cabbage; cut into wedges and cut out core. 
  • Using a food processor or sharp knife, shred the cabbage. 
  • Insert 1 whole clove into onion. 
  • Peel and quarter apples. 
  • Heat bacon fat or oil in a large saucepan over low to medium heat. Add cabbage and stir to coat. 
  • Add remaining ingredients; reduce heat to low. 
  • Cover and simmer for about 45 minutes. Red cabbage should be 'al dente' and apples should be softened and blended in.
  • Adjust vinegar, salt and pepper to taste.  
  • Toss with some diced cooked bacon just before serving, if desired. 

Serves 6. Braised red cabbage freezes well, thaw and heat in microwave to serve.
