CIDER-BRAISED CABBAGE & LEEK HOTPOT

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large pan, tip in the leeks and sweat for 5 mins, stirring to break up, until they soften. Stir in the cabbage, then pour over the cider. Turn up the heat and wilt the cabbage for a few mins. Season, and serve immediately.

CIDER-BRAISED CABBAGE

Steps:

• Cook 1 sliced red onion and 1 chopped peeled apple in a Dutch oven with vegetable oil over medium heat until softened, about 5 minutes. Add 1/2 head thinly sliced red cabbage, 1 cup apple cider, 3 tablespoons red wine vinegar and 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage is tender, 30 minutes.

BRAISED CABBAGE

Steps:

• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir cabbage and onion until onions are translucent, about 5 minutes. Pour in water; add vinegar, sugar, caraway seeds, and salt. Reduce heat to low and cook, stirring occasionally, until cabbage is tender, 20 to 25 minutes.

BRAISED CABBAGE AND APPLE

Steps:

• In a cast iron pan or large skillet over medium heat melt the butter. Add the sliced apples, tossing to coat and sauté for 2 minutes. Add the brown sugar and apple cider vinegar. Stir to mix in and continue cooking for 2 more minutes.
• Add the sliced cabbage, spices and carefully toss to coat. Add the water, cover with lid and simmer for 5 minutes.
• Remove lid, season to taste and drain any excess water. Serve or keep warm, covered with aluminum foil in a casserole dish.

CIDER-BRAISED CABBAGE WEDGES

Steps:

• Heat the oil and butter in a large shallow flameproof casserole dish or frying pan over a medium heat. Add the onion wedges and a pinch of salt and fry for 15 mins or until softened and caramelised.
• Cut the cabbage into 8-10 thin wedges, slicing through the stem but keeping a bit of it in each wedge so they remain intact. Nestle the wedges into the dish and add the bay leaves, thyme and cinnamon. Pour over the cider and vinegars and bring to the boil, then combine the stock and sugar in a jug before pouring this over. Season to taste. Bring to the boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook, uncovered, for 40-50 mins until the cabbage is tender with a slight bite and you have a glossy sauce. Can be made up to three days ahead. Reheat in the pan, or in the microwave in a heatproof serving dish.

QUICK BRAISED RED CABBAGE WITH CIDER VINEGAR

Steps:

• Cover the cabbage strips in cold water in a large bowl while you prepare the rest of the ingredients.
• Heat the butter in a large pot. Add the onion slices and cook them, stirring frequently under medium heat for about 5 minutes, until they begin to become transparent. Add 2 tablespoons of the apple cider vinegar and cook for another 1 minute. Add the apple pieces and continue cooking for another 2 minutes. (The onions will have cooked for 8 minutes by the end.)
• Drain the cabbage but do not dry it. Add it to the pot in 3 batches, stirring well after each one. Once all the cabbage is stirred in, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar, the salt and pepper, and the caraway seeds.
• Stir the ingredients until they are well combined, cover the pot, lower the heat, and let the cabbage cook for 18-20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
