Red Cabbage with Raisins

This sweet and sour dish is easy to prepare and accompanies a poultry, beef or strong fish main course.

 

  • 1 red cabbage
  • 2 onions
  • 2 chopped cooking apples (or sharp, tart apples)
  • lemon juice
  • 100g raisins (soak in water before use)
  • 1 spoon of sugar

 

Saute the onions in a mix of vegetable oil & butter, then add the chopped cabbage, chopped cooking apple, lemon juice, brown sugar and raisins.

 

Cover the saucepan with a lid and cook slowly until all the ingredients soften. You will need to cook for at least 40 minutes and the cabbage will reduce quite considerably.
