I like red cabbage, sliced and cooked as most posters above, but with a tablespoon of redcurrant jelly and a glug of balsamic vinegar added to the pan in the last 5 minutes of cooking time.

Chop some apple in there too, if you have some. Lovely

We cook red cabbage in value orange juice

Sometimes, if we are eating white cabbage, I lay slices of apple on top as it is cooking.

That sounds gorgeous Vij, and a really simple supper. Thank you :cool:

Depending on what i am having it with, i chop it up into slithers, removing the stem bits and then either boil it until desired crunchy/softness, or i pop it in a frying pan with some chicken stock and essentially steam it

white cabbage I cook with pepper and butter as previous poster said. but - its best for coleslaw. i slice mine thinly (after removing stalk) then add thinly sliced onion - coarse grated carrot - and fifty fity mayo and salad cream. salt and pepper.

I normally steam it

However I often make ribollita soup / broth using a Waitrose recipe, main ingredients are cabbage & beans

I omit the garlic [can't stand it] and bacon

quick, cheap & easy

Looking for something inspirational to do with cabbage.
Other than digging a hole and burying it.:rolleyes:

Hi mardatha,

No need to sigh I like it lightly steamed then tossed in butter and baked in the oven with crispy bacon.

There are lots more ideas on this thread:

I'll add your post to that one later to keep the suggestions together.
