Ingredients
- 1 medium head red cabbage
- 2 medium apples
- 1 medium onion
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 0.333 cup grape jelly
- 3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 cup water
Instructions
Remove the outer leaves of the red cabbage, then slice it in half and core it. Thinly slice the cabbage into long shreds and set aside.
Peel and core the apples, then dice them into small cubes. Peel and finely chop the onion.
In a large pot or deep skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion to the pot and sauté for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently, until softened and translucent.
Add the shredded red cabbage to the pot and stir well to combine with the onions.
Stir in the diced apples, grape jelly, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, salt, and black pepper.
Pour in the water and stir everything together. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
Cover the pot with a lid and reduce the heat to low. Let the cabbage cook for 30-35 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage is tender and the flavors are well incorporated.
Taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt or sugar, if needed.
Serve warm as a side dish, and enjoy!
