Fresh Cabbage & Apples

• I came across a Polish idea to cook white cabbage with apples.
• The writer did not give a method nor did they say whether they made it sweet or tart.
• I went for a slightly sweet version and I thought the result was delicious.

Ingredients

• 1 sweetheart cabbage or a small white cabbage
• 2 large Bramley apples
• 500ml water
• 2-3 tablespoons of granulated sugar

Method

• Preheat the oven to GM 3 – 160°C.
• Use a large oven proof dish with a lid.
• Chop the cabbage into rough squares.
• Peel and core the apples and chop these into chunks.
• Mix the cabbage, apples and sugar together and put in the dish.
• Add the water.
• Cook for around 1 hour.
• Keep an eye on this about half way through as the apples can fluff up and escape from the dish.
• *
• Serve with roast chicken, duck or pork.

• You can add part of the sugar and add the rest to taste at the end.

• Served in Bavarian china with a forget me knots pattern
