Red Cabbage with Caraway

Cabbage with Caraway

I just love this - it is quick, easy, yummy, and good for you!! I usually have it with pumpkin kluski (a sort of gnocchi from Poland), and that combo is perfect for autumn - not only do you have the warm oranges and purples of autumn colours, but the flavours as well - and a good warming and filling dish.. It goes well with noodles or with meat. If you haven't had caraway try it - it is a lovely spice, no heat but with a lovely fragrant taste. :)



Ingredients

olive oil for frying
2 -3 teaspoons caraway seeds
1 small head of red cabbage sliced finely
2 onions sliced

Method
Heat oil over a medium heat, add caraway seeds and onion and cook till the onion is translucent.

Add cabbage and cook until the cabbage is soft but still firm. Serve!!

Variations
You can add a bit of butter for a bit more richness, or a splash of brandy for a bit of fruity sweetness - but the original is pretty good all by itself! Some people add a wee bit of sour cream right at the end, but I prefer it without myself :)
