hi everyone, what is a nice idea for a red cabbage. I grew them, as but not sure what they are best used for? ?

I do a lovely braised red cabbage and apple with raspberry vinegar. I don't have recipe as such, but here's the gist of it:In a pot with a lid, saute an onion, and a couple of cloves of garlic, add 1 tsp of fennel seeds in a bit of olive oil. Cook until the onion is translucent. Add 1/2 a finely sliced red cabbage and a couple of tart cooking apples (peeled and diced), plus a handful of raisins (optional), good bit of salt and black pepper. Now add about 3 T of raspberry vinegar (red wine vinegar is fine too), and about 2 T of brown sugar, plus about 1/2 cup of water. Stir, then put the lid on and gently braise for at least 1/2 hour, longer if you've got time. Periodically just check that there is still some liquid in the base of the pan, if not, add a spot more. This is delicious hot or warm. Keeps perfectly in the fridge for up to a week. :-)ps - this is delicious served with a few toasted walnuts scattered on top.

My Mum also does one with balsamic vinegar in it I think. I also noticed a recipe in one of the weekend pull outs in the newspaper which looked very nice.

I cooked some for the first time ever yesterday. I sliced up an onion, an apple, red cabbage, added some white wine vinegar, brown sugar, mixed spice and nutmeg plus lots of seasonong. I have to say it was delicious and will definitely be cooking it again. I think I will try the salad posted above it sounds yum

Yummy as a warm salad with spring onions and salted mixed nuts.
