Braised Cabbage


Cabbage is the perfect vegetable: cheap, accessible, delicious and versatile. Braised cabbage is the perfect comfort food for cold winters.

1 head red or green cabbage
1 large white or yellow onion, sliced
1/4 cup olive oil
1 tbsp salt
1/2 tbsp pepper
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1/2 cup water or chicken broth


Heat oven to 350. Remove any discolored outer leaves from the cabbage, then cut into large wedges. Place cabbage and onion in large baking dish, then drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Pour the apple cider vinegar and the water or broth into the dish. Cover tightly with tin foil and cook for an hour and a half.



Increase temperature to 450 and take the foil off the baking dish. Cook for another 15 minutes or so or until the cabbage turns brown.
