Background

This braised spiced red cabbage with brandied cherries goes superbly with roast turkey, duck, goose or game. So it’s an ideal dish in a Christmas menu. You can make it days ahead -for a more intense flavour soak the cherries in the brandy overnight.

Ingredients

1 small red cabbage
1 red onion
½ tsp crushed cloves (about 4 cloves)
2 Tbsp light muscovado sugar
1 cinnamon stick
1 star anise
1 bay leaf
1 pinch of salt
½ cup red wine vinegar
½ cup cherry juice
1 tin sherries in syrup
3 Tbsp cherry brandy

Instructions

Thinly slice the onion and finely shred the cabbage. Drain the cherries into a bowl and add the brandy. Set aside to marinate.
Put everything in a heavy-based pan, including the tinned cherries syrup, then bring to the boil.
Cook for about 30 minutes over low heat, until the cabbage is tender, or longer for a softer texture. Add the brandied cherries and simmer for 10 more minutes.
Serve warm.
