This pickled sweet and sour red cabbage is a vibrant, versatile addition to any table. Slowly braised in the oven, the cabbage softens beautifully, absorbing the aromatic flavours of mixed spice, zesty orange, and tangy white wine vinegar. The addition of sliced cooking apples and plump sultanas provides a natural sweetness that balances the acidity, creating a sophisticated side dish that pairs perfectly with savoury mains or festive centrepieces.
As a naturally vegan dish, it is an excellent option for inclusive entertaining. While often served piping hot alongside a traditional roast, this cabbage is equally delicious served cold as a sharp, crunchy pickle. It can be prepared well in advance, as the flavours continue to develop and meld together over time, making it a stress-free choice for busy weekend cooking or holiday meal prep.
