Method

  • step 1

    Heat oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 3. Heat the butter in a casserole dish until sizzled to a nutty brown. Add the onion and fry for 15 mins over a medium heat until soft and starting to colour.

  • step 2

    Tip the remaining ingredients into a large pan and cover with a tight-fitting lid. Put in the oven for 1 hr, then stir, cover and cook for a further 1 hr until the cabbage is tender. If it looks dry, add a splash of water; if there’s still liquid in the pan once cooked, turn the heat up until it evaporates. Season with a little salt and serve. Can be prepared up to three days ahead and chilled or frozen for up to three months; reheat in the microwave or in a pan on the hob.

If you follow this recipe exactly as written, you use a casserole dish for the onions in step 1 and then a large pan for the other ingredients in step 2. Do the onions ever end up in the cabbage?

Not for me. I find it too sweet and sickly and the flavour combinations don’t work for me.

tip

I added star anise, optional but not essential. It's a delicious addition for Christmas dinner.

question

Can this be cooked in a slow cooker & if so, on which setting & for how long?

Hi, yes this could be done in the slow cooker. Cook on low, covered with a lid, for about 4-6 hours until tender. Check there's enough liquid during cooking. Best wishes, BBC Good Food Team.
