How to make
Sweet & Sour Braised Red Cabbage with Dried Cranberries
Core and shred the red cabbage as shown in the video: first, cut the end off, then cut in half and half again. Remove the core and the outer leaves, if damaged. Then cut in quarters and shred each piece. Try and make it fairly thin, as it will cook quicker.
Finely slice the onion and finely dice the apple.
Place everything into a large ovenproof pan and give it a stir, then add the brown sugar, star anice, cinnamon stick, cider vinegar, red wine, half the dried cranberries and a pinch of salt. Finally, add the orange juice into the pan.
Ensure the mixture is seasoned well with salt and black pepper, to your taste. Bring the mixture to simmer then cover with a lid.
Cook on the stove, lid on, for about an hour, stirring every so often. Make sure it's on a very low simmer. You can also cook it in the oven, but the stove is preferred. In the last 40 mins of cooking time, add the other half of the dried cranberries and the butter. Stir through and cover and cook for a final 40 minutes.
Serve and enjoy!
