With my hectic travel schedule becoming dormant, I am spending a lot of time in the kitchen.
I found this recipe in one of Jamie Oliver 's cookbooks. Of course I had to edit it based on my food allergies. Thank you Jamie for the inspiration!
His recipe...Must try red cabbage braised with apple, bacon and balsamic vinegar.
I am allergic to pork, so I used turkey bacon. Recipe calls for butter, I used a dairy free alternative.
Ingredients
- olive oil
- 1/2 lb of turkey bacon
- 1 tablespoon of dill seeds (his recipe calls for fennel but we didn't have any).
- 2 apples
- 1/2 purple cabbage
- salt, pepper to season
- 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
- a dollop of dairy free butter
- parsley to garnish
Chop all ingredients. Add to sauce pan olive oil, bacon and dill seeds. When golden add cabbage, apple, salt & pepper, and vinegar. Stir all together. Cook on low heat for an hour. Serve with a dollop of butter and dried parsley.
The recipe calls for one onion but I don't usually cook with onions. I adjusted the measurements based on my family's taste. This dish is tasty and will please all. Serves 4. Enjoy!
If you end up making it, let me know what you think!
