Ingredients
- 1 head red cabbage medium size, can use green as well, cut into eighths, cored, and sliced into ½-inch thick ribbons
- 2 apples unpeeled, cut into ½-inch dice
- 1 onion quartered and thinly sliced
- ¼ cup apple cider vinegar
- 1 tsp caraway seed
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Heat a Dutch oven or large sauté pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add chopped apples and sliced onions to dry, hot pot. Cook 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until onions and apples start to brown and onion softens. Do NOT add any liquid or oil to this.
- Add sliced cabbage, caraway seed, and apple cider vinegar and stir to combine. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until cabbage is tender. I like mine tender-crisp, but you can cook down until completely tender, if desired. Season with salt and pepper and serve.
