Braised Red Cabbage
They call it red, but it’s actually purple—and it’s full of flavonoids, the nifty antioxidant that helps prevent cancer and other illnesses. Serve this with pan-cooked pork chops or browned bratwurst.
Ingredients
8 cups shredded red cabbage
2 cups chopped, peeled tart apples
1 cup chopped red onion
1 cup beer or dry red wine, plus more as needed
1/2 cup cider vinegar
1/2 tsp. salt
1 Tbsp. honey
coarsely ground pepper to taste
Directions
Place cabbage, apples, red onion, and beer or red wine in large, non-reactive saucepan. Bring to simmer and cook over medium heat until vegetables become slightly tender, about 10 minutes.
Add remaining ingredients and continue to cook, stirring often, until tender, 10-15 minutes. As it cooks, add more beer if necessary to keep vegetables from sticking to the pot.
Suggestions
Use the red wine option to make this recipe gluten-free.
