About this recipe
Braised apple red cabbage is a classic accompaniment in Bavaria and other regions of central Europe, where it may be called Blaukraut, Rotkraut or Rotkohl. The dish is made from thinly sliced purple cabbage cooked until tender with fruit, onions, vinegar and fragrant spices. Tart apples add a gentle sweetness that balances the acidity of the vinegar, while bay leaves, cloves and a little cinnamon bring a warm winter aroma. This version uses cloudy apple juice rather than wine and is therefore a practical choice for everyday family meals. A splash of vinegar added early helps keep the colour bright. Slow simmering gives the cabbage time to soften and absorb the flavours without becoming mushy. It is particularly good with crispy pork roast, potato dumplings or other savoury braised dishes, and can conveniently be prepared ahead and reheated.
