Red cabbage with apples is a traditional German side dish for pork roast and other roasts, Christmas goose, turkey, and game. It tastes even better when reheated so I usually make it the day before. It is a staple on most people's home for Christmas dinner.

Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter

  • 1 tablespoon sugar

  • 1 onion, finely chopped

  • 1 large apple - peeled, cored and diced

  • 2 pounds red cabbage, cored and thinly sliced

  • ½ cup vegetable broth

  • 4 tablespoons cider vinegar

  • salt to taste

  • fresh-ground black pepper
