Ruby Red Braised Cabbage

1. 1

   1. Divide the cabbage into quarters. Cut away the core around the stem. Cut the cabbage into thin strips.

2. 2

   2. Place the shallots, red wine, port, and vinegar in a Dutch oven. Bring to a boil and let simmer 5 minutes or until reduced by about one-third.

   4. Grate the Granny Smith apple with a box grater (the coarse grate is fine) into the cabbage mixture. Stir to combine.

   5. Cover the pot and allow to simmer on a low heat for 1.5 hours, stirring occasionally. Because you added the salt to the cabbage, it should release plenty of liquid, but watch to make sure that the cabbage doesn't get too dry. If you need to, you can add some more red wine or some water. (I did not need to do this step, but just in case!)
