Background
Braised red cabbage with chestnuts goes perfectly with roast turkey, duck or goose - so it's an ideal side-dish for a Thanksgiving or Christmas menu. It can be made in advance - just reheat it 15 minutes before serving, adding the cranberries and cranberry sauce to it at the that point.
Ingredients
- 1 red cabbage (medium)
- 2 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 red onion
- 4 Tbsp red wine vinegar
- 2-3 Tbsp soft brown sugar
- 100g fresh cranberries
- 3 Tbsp cranberry sauce
Instructions
- Chop the onion.
- Heat the oil in a heavy-based pot and gently soften the onion. This should take about 8 minutes.
- Meanwhile, core and thinly slice the cabbage, then add to the onion.
- Add the vinegar and sugar, season with salt and pepper.
- Cook gently, under cover, on a low heat for 30-40 minutes until tender.
- When the cabbage is softened, stir in the cranberries and the cranberry sauce.
- Cook for another 5 minutes.
- Serve warm.
