Healthy & Delicious: Red Cabbage With Apples And Honey Recipe

• 4 cardamom pods
• 1 teaspoon coriander seeds
• 1/2 cup honey
• 4 cups apple juice
• 1/3 cup white wine vinegar
• 4 ounces (about 5 slices) bacon, cut into 1-by-1/2-inch strips
• 2 medium onions, peeled and thinly sliced
• 1 head red cabbage, quartered, cored, and thinly sliced
• 2 Granny Smith apples, cored and diced

1. Put a rack in the lower third of the oven and preheat the oven to 300u0b0F.
2. In a spice grinder or clean coffee grinder, finely grind the cardamom and coriander seeds. Bring the honey to a boil in a small saucepan. Add the ground spices, apple juice, and white wine vinegar. Bring to a boil, and reduce the liquid by half.
3. Meanwhile, in a medium cast-iron pot or Dutch oven, cook the bacon over medium-high heat until translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the onions and cook for 5 minutes more. Add the red cabbage and apples and cook, stirring, until softened, about 15 minutes. Pour the reduced honey-apple mixture over the cabbage and toss to coat. Cover the pot and transfer it to the oven.
4. Braise for 2 hours, or until the cabbage is very tender.
