Red Cabbage

2 red cabbages (quartered and sliced)
2 onions, sliced

2 tablespoons oil

2 tablespoons brown sugar

4 tablespoons red wine vinegar

4 tablespoons orange juice

2 apples, peeled and grated

1 teaspoon of allspice

1 cup of water

• Soften the onions in the oil (don’t let brown)

• Then put all the remaining ingredients into the pot (you will need a large one – I used a big stock pot) and stir.

• Allow to simmer on a low heat for about 1.5 – 2 hours until cabbage is tender. You should give it a stir every half hour or so, and add more water if the liquid dries up completely so it doesn’t burn, but the amount of liquid in my recipe works perfectly for me.

This is an easy recipe and can be halved. It requires little effort but takes a while to make, which is why I make so much and freeze it. I just hope my parents like it when they come over for dinner later this week!
