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.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

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

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

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.
