Ingredients

  • 1 red cabbage head, chopped into bite-sized chunks
  • 2 cups of water, with additional as required
  • 2 tablespoons of high-quality olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons of aromatic caraway seeds
  • Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to your liking

Step 1

Begin by gently placing the vibrant cabbage pieces into a generously sized pan, allowing them to nestle together comfortably. Next, gracefully drizzle two cups of pure water over the cabbage, embracing each leaf with hydration. Sprinkle a touch of fragrant olive oil, tangy cider vinegar, and delicate caraway seeds atop the cabbage, infusing it with a symphony of flavors.

Step 2

Now, lovingly cover the pot, creating a cozy cocoon for the cabbage to transform. Set the heat to a gentle medium, allowing the magic to unfold slowly. As the cabbage dances in the steam, remember to give it a gentle stir once or twice, ensuring each piece is enveloped in the blissful mixture. If needed, add a splash of water to maintain the steam's enchanting embrace, nurturing the cabbage to tenderness over approximately 30 minutes.

Step 3

Finally, as the cabbage reaches its peak of tenderness, sprinkle a pinch of salt and a dash of pepper to elevate its flavors further. Enjoy this delightful dish that is both comforting and nourishing, perfect for any occasion.
