Instructions

1. Quarter the cabbage and remove the core, then shred it thinly. Peel the apple and beets coarsely. Cut the onion in half, then slice thinly.
2. Put everything in a large, heavy-based (preferably in cast iron) pan, cover and simmer gently at a low temperature for 30-60 minutes, depending on how well-cooked you like your cabbage.
3. Before serving, remove the cinnamon stick.
