Braised Red Cabbage Recipe
  1. Cut your cabbage into quarters and then remove the tough core.

  2. Finely shred the cabbage into 5mm strips. You can do this with a food processor if you are that way inclined.

  3. Heat the cooking oil over a low heat in a 20cm or 8" saucepan and when it is warm toss in the cinnamon stick and shredded cabbage.

  4. Season generously with salt and pepper and stir.

  5. Add a lid and cook on low for 10 minutes just to start the softening process.

  6. Add in the red wine, brown sugar, red wine vinegar and cloves.

  7. Grate in ⅛-¼ of a whole fresh nutmeg.

  8. Stir then add a lid and set it on a low heat for 90 minutes.

  9. Stir every 20-30 minutes or so.

  10. Double all of the ingredients, and prepare them as you would for the stovetop recipe.

  11. Throw everything into the Instant Pot, add a lid and cook on high pressure for 20 minutes, then do a quick release.

  12. Switch to saute mode and cook for 10 minutes to drive off excess moisture.

  13. If you have a small slow cooker (1.8 litre or 2 quart) you can use the same quantities as my recipe above. If you have a 3-4 litre slow cooker you will need to double the recipe and if you have a large 6 litre slow cooker you will need to treble the recipe.

  14. Prepare all of the ingredients as above and throw them into the slow cooker and cook for 4-6 hours on low giving everything a stir every hour or so.
