Difficulty:
Easy
- medium red cabbage
- 150ml red wine vinegar
- 150g brown sugar
- 2 star anise
- 1 cinnamon stick
Some red cabbage recipes may use apples- feel free to add these in (just use peeled and chopped cooking apples) alongside the cabbage early on.
This recipe can be made in advance- just let it cool, then store in the fridge for several days prior or a couple of months in the freezer. Reheat on low heat.
Step by Step Instructions
Step 1
First, finely shred the red cabbage, and add to a large pan on medium heat.

Step 2
Next, into the pan add the red wine vinegar and brown sugar. Stir everything together.

Step 3
Next, add the cinnamon stick and the star anise, bring to the boil, then cover and reduce the heat to low-medium. Cook for 90 minutes.

Step 4
Stir the cabbage occasionally, and after 90 minutes it should be soft and tender. The cabbage is then ready to serve. Enjoy!
