Number Of Ingredients 6

1 red cabbage (about 1kg), quartered and finely shredded
100g light brown soft sugar
150ml red wine vinegar
1 cinnamon stick
1 star anise
large knob of butter

Steps:

  • Tip the cabbage into a large pan with the sugar, vinegar, cinnamon and star anise. Season well. Put over a medium heat and bring to a simmer, then cover, reduce the heat and cook for 1 hr, simmering gently and stirring occasionally.
  • Remove the lid, turn the heat up to medium and continue cooking for 20 mins, uncovered, until tender and the liquid has reduced to a sticky syrup. Once cool, will keep in an airtight container in the fridge for three days or frozen for up to two months. Reheat over a low heat. Stir in the butter before serving.
