Ingredients

Half a large or one small red cabbage

2 medium red onions

1 large orange

50g (2oz) raisins

50g (2oz) chopped walnuts

50g (2oz) unsalted butter

3 tsps granulated sugar

2 tbsp red wine vinegar

200ml (7 fl oz) stock or water

salt & pepper

Method

Slice the onions and brown in the butter in a heavy-bottomed casserole or large saucepan over medium heat.

Grate the rind from the orange finely, and squeeze the juice. Shred the red cabbage, discarding the core. Add the cabbage, orange juice and rind, sugar, vinegar, seasoning and stock or water to the casserole and mix thoroughly. Cover tightly.

Either cook slowly on top of the stove on a low heat or transfer to the oven heated to Gas Mark 4, 175 deg C, 340 deg F, until cooked through (about 30 - 45 minutes).

Add the walnuts and raisins after 20 minutes cooking time. Give the cabbage a stir from time.
