Oktoberfest Braised Red Cabbage & Apples
- 1 clove Garlic, Smashed
- 3 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter
- 2 pounds Red Cabbage, Cut Into 1 1/2 Inch Slices
- 1 whole Gala Or Fuji Apple Cut Into 1/2 Inch Cubed Pieces
- 1/2 cups Unfiltered Apple Cider
- 1/2 teaspoons Caraway Seeds
- 1 teaspoon Allspice (optional)
- 1-1/2 Tablespoon Apple Cider Vinegar
- 1-1/2 Tablespoon White Wine Vinegar Or Rice Wine Vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Salt, Plus More To Taste
- 1/2 teaspoons Pepper, Plus More To Taste
- In a 12-inch heavy skillet over medium heat, cook garlic in butter, stirring, for 1 minute. Add cabbage, apple, cider, caraway, allspice (if using), 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Cook, covered, stirring occasionally, until cabbage is tender, about 15 to 18 minutes.
- Add vinegars and cook, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until liquid has evaporated, about 2 to 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
- Note: The original recipe calls for just 1 1/2 tablespoons of apple-cider vinegar. However, I found adding the additional white wine vinegar really added an extra sweetness to the dish which contrasted nicely with the stronger apple cider vinegar.
