Serves 4 as a side dish
1 small red cabbage, cored and chopped
1 large onion, cut in half lengthwise, and then sliced
2 apples, peeled, cored, sliced
3 Tb apple cider or balsamic vinegar
2 Tb olive oil
salt and pepper to taste
1 Tb caraway seeds
Heat 1 Tb of the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and add the onion. Sauté for about 5 minutes, until just tender. Add the remaining olive oil and the cabbage along with a couple of Tb of water, and continue to sauté for about 5 more minutes, until the cabbage softens. Add the apple slices and sauté for a couple of minutes. Add the vinegar, caraway, and salt & pepper and cook for a few more minutes to incorporate the flavors nicely.
This sautéed cabbage dish pairs well with roasted pork, brats, or other sausages.
