35 minutes prep time  |  Serves 8

What you need:

  • 1/4 c vegetable oil 
  • 4 c thinly sliced onions
  • 8 c thinly sliced red cabbage
  • 1 tsp salt, or to taste
  • 2/3 c apple juice or cider
  • 2 c fresh or frozen cranberries, sorted and rinsed
  • 2 Tbsp cider vinegar
  • 2 Tbsp sugar, or to taste

What you do:

  1. Note: If using frozen cranberries, allow them to thaw at room temperature while you prepare ingredients and cook onions and cabbage.
  2. Warm oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add onions and saute for about 10 minutes, until translucent.
  3. Add cabbage and sprinkle with salt. Continue to cook, stirring often, for about 15 minutes, or until cabbage is tender.
  4. Add apple juice or cider and cranberries. Cook, stirring continuously, for 3 to 4 minutes, just until cranberries begin to pop. Cranberries should be tender but still hold their shape.
  5. Remove saucepan from heat and stir in vinegar and sugar. Serve immediately.
