BRAISED RED CABBAGE WITH APPLES



Braised Red Cabbage With Apples image

This is an adaptation of a classic cabbage dish that I never tire of. The cabbage cooks for a long time, until it is very tender and sweet. I like to serve this with bulgur, or as a side dish with just about anything. You can halve the quantities if you don't want to make such a large amount.

Categories     easy, one pot, side dish

Time 1h15m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 large red cabbage, 2 to 2 1/2 pounds, quartered, cored and cut crosswise in thin strips
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 small onion, thinly sliced
2 tart apples, such as Braeburn or granny smith, peeled, cored and sliced
About 1/3 cup balsamic vinegar
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
Salt
freshly ground pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Prepare the cabbage, and cover with cold water while you prepare the remaining ingredients. Heat the oil over medium heat in a large, lidded skillet or casserole, and add the onion. Cook, stirring, until just about tender, about three minutes. Add 2 tablespoons of the balsamic vinegar and cook, stirring, until the mixture is golden, about three minutes, then add the apples and stir for two to three minutes.
  • Drain the cabbage and add to the pot. Toss to coat thoroughly, then stir in the allspice, another 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar, and salt to taste. Toss together. Cover the pot, and cook over low heat for one hour, stirring from time to time. Add freshly ground pepper, taste and adjust salt, and add another tablespoon or two of balsamic vinegar as desired.

Provided by Chef Kate

Categories     Vegetable

Time 1h30m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons unsalted butter (or canola oil)
1/4 cup shallot, finely chopped
1 cup apple, peeled and diced (approximately 1 large apple)
1 (2 1/2 lb) red cabbage, cored, tough outer leaves removed and thinly sliced
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1 cup dry red wine, divided
1 tablespoon honey (or agave for vegans)
salt
4 fresh thyme sprigs
12 juniper berries
pepper
1 teaspoon caraway seed
1 cup hazelnuts, toasted, skins removed and coarsely chopped

Steps:

  • In a large casserole or Dutch oven, melt the butter and cook the shallots and apples over medium-low heat until soft and fragrant, about 5 minutes.
  • Stir in the cabbage, vinegar, three-fourths cup wine, the honey and 1 teaspoons salt. Tie the thyme and juniper berries in a cheesecloth bag and stir in with the rest of the ingredients. Cover the pot and bring to a slow simmer.
  • Simmer the cabbage until tender, about 1 hour, stirring occasionally to make sure that the cabbage doesn't stick to the bottom of the pan. Stir the remaining one-fourth cup wine into the pot halfway through cooking, and add additional water throughout the cooking process if the liquid evaporates and the cabbage becomes dry.
  • When the cabbage is almost done, toast the caraway seeds in a small sauté pan over medium-high heat until fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes. Shake the pan frequently so the seeds do not burn. Remove from heat.
  • When the cabbage is tender, remove the pot from heat and season to taste with salt and pepper. Stir in the toasted caraway seeds, then cool, cover and refrigerate until needed. Reheat, adjust the seasoning if needed and serve sprinkled with toasted hazelnuts.

EASY BRAISED RED CABBAGE



Easy Braised Red Cabbage image

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Healthy Recipes     Gluten-Free Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup red wine
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon fennel seeds
1 red cabbage, (about 3 pounds), halved lengthwise, cored, and thinly cut crosswise into 1/4-inch thick slices
2 teaspoons coarse salt
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • In a large Dutch-oven, bring the wine, honey, oil, and fennel seeds to a boil over medium-high heat. Add the cabbage, and season with salt and pepper. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and cook, stirring occasionally, until cabbage is soft but not mushy, about 1 hour.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of cabbage: For a more complex flavor, try using a mix of red and green cabbage.
  • Slice the cabbage thinly: This will help it cook evenly and absorb the braising liquid.
  • Sauté the cabbage before braising: This will help to caramelize the sugars in the cabbage and give it a deeper flavor.
  • Use a flavorful braising liquid: The braising liquid is what will give the cabbage its flavor, so be sure to use a liquid that you enjoy the taste of. You can use a combination of water, broth, wine, or vinegar.
  • Add some aromatics to the braising liquid: Aromatics like garlic, onion, and carrots will help to infuse the cabbage with flavor.
  • Braise the cabbage until it is tender: The cabbage should be tender but still have a slight crunch to it. Depending on the type of cabbage you are using, this may take anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour.
  • Serve the cabbage warm: Braised cabbage is best served warm, but it can also be served cold or at room temperature.

Conclusion:

Braised red cabbage is a delicious and versatile dish that can be served as a side dish or a main course. It is a great way to use up leftover cabbage, and it is also a healthy and affordable meal. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a dish that is sure to impress your family and friends.
