Braised Beetroot and Red Cabbage with Apple

This warm, comforting variation delivers the tangy and earthy flavors of traditional sauerkraut without the weeks of fermentation time. Sweet apples and grated beetroots melt into the red cabbage during a slow braise, creating a vibrant, ruby-red side dish that pairs perfectly with roasted meats or hearty grain bowls.

Ingredients

1 small head red cabbage (approx. 1.5 lbs), thinly sliced
2 medium raw beetroots, peeled and grated
1 large tart apple (such as Granny Smith), peeled and diced
1 medium red onion, thinly sliced
2 tbsp vegetable oil
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
1/2 cup vegetable broth or water
2 tbsp brown sugar or maple syrup
1 tsp caraway seeds
1 tsp sea salt
1/4 tsp black pepper

Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the vegetables: remove the core from the red cabbage and slice it into thin strips. Peel and grate the beetroots, and dice the apple.

  2. 2

    In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat.

  3. 3

    Add the sliced red onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until it begins to soften.

  4. 4

    Add the sliced red cabbage, grated beetroot, and diced apple to the pot. Stir well to combine.

  5. 5

    Pour in the apple cider vinegar and vegetable broth. Sprinkle in the brown sugar, caraway seeds, salt, and pepper.

  6. 6

    Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low.

  7. 7

    Cover the pot and let it simmer for 40 to 45 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.

  8. 8

    Check for tenderness; the cabbage should be soft but not mushy. If there is too much liquid remaining, remove the lid and cook for another 5 minutes to reduce.

  9. 9

    Taste and adjust seasoning, adding more vinegar for tartness or sugar for sweetness if desired.

  10. 10

    Serve warm as a hearty side dish.
