Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 6

6 rashers unsmoked bacon , diced
200ml red wine vinegar
2 tbsp light soft brown sugar
1 small red cabbage , shredded
handful sultanas
150g stilton or other hard blue cheese, crumbled

Steps:

  • Cook the bacon in a frying pan until crispy. You shouldn't need any oil as the fat will run from the bacon.
  • Heat the vinegar in a large saucepan until just simmering. Tip in the sugar and stir to dissolve, then add the red cabbage. Cook for a further 3 - 5 minutes, tossing the cabbage through the vinegar.
  • Spoon the cabbage into bowl, stir through the bacon, sultanas and season with black pepper and a little salt. Allow to cool.
  • Toss in the blue cheese to serve.
