SUFFOLK RED CABBAGE

Steps:

• Cut the cabbage into quarters. Remove the cores and then slice fairly thin. Melt the butter in an ovenproof casserole dish and add the ham cut into little sticks about 1 inch long.
• Let it simmer gently in the butter without browning for 5 minutes; then stir in the cabbage and turn it over in the butter until it is all coated and glistening. Cover the dish and allow it to sweat for 10 minutes. Stir in the vinegar, sugar and seasoning and cover the dish. Bake very gently at 325 degrees F for 2 hours, stirring occasionally.

HAM HOCK WITH RED CABBAGE

Steps:

• For the slow cooker: Preheat the slow cooker, if required. Put the ham hocks in the pot and cover with water so that the cooker is three-quarters full. Cover with the lid and cook on auto/low for 6-8 hours. Remove the hams and reserve the cooking liquid, if you wish to use it instead of the vegetable stock (it can be salty). When the hams are cool enough to handle, remove the skin and discard, then sit the hams back in the slow cooker. Add all the other ingredients, using either the stock or the cooking liquid, and season with salt and pepper. Cover with the lid and cook on auto/low for 6-8 hours. Remove the hams, shred the meat, and stir it into the slow cooker. Serve with baked or roast potatoes. For the traditional method: Preheat the oven to 160°C/ 325°F/ gas 3. Sit the ham hocks in a large heavy-based pan and cover with water. Bring to the boil, then reduce to a simmer, partially cover, and cook gently for 1 hour. Remove the hams and reserve the stock, if you wish to use it instead of the vegetable stock (it can be salty). When the hams are cool enough to handle, remove the skin and discard, then sit the hams in a large flameproof casserole. Add all the other ingredients to the casserole, using either the stock or the cooking liquid, and tuck the hams in neatly. Season with salt and pepper, cover, and put in the oven for 2 hours. Check occasionally that it's not drying out, topping up with a little hot water if necessary. Remove the hams, shred the meat, and stir it into the casserole. Serve with baked or roast potatoes.

ROASTED HAM WITH RED CABBAGE

Steps:

• Rinse and pat dry meat. Peel and finely chop the onions and fry briefly in oil. Rinse and finely chop the parsley. Mix the breadcrumbs with onions, chopped parsley and the soft butter and knead. Rub the meat with salt and pepper. Preheat the oven to 180°C (approximately 350°F) and roast for about 1 hour. Sprinkle again with some beef stock. Brush meat with breadcrumbs cook au gratin, for about 20 minutes. Let it sit for about 10 minutes before serving.
• Rinse cabbage, remove outer leaves, quarters lengthwise, cut out the stalk and cut crosswise into 0.5 cm wide (approximately 1/4 inch) strips.
• Rinse apples, quarter, cut out core and cube. Peel and finely chop the shallot.
• Heat oil in a large pot, heat the shallots until soft, add cabbage and apple and cook for about 4 minutes. Add the red wine, 100 ml (approximately 3 ounces) of water, red wine vinegar, spices, salt and pepper, mix well, cover and cook for about 30 minutes. Serve altogether on a plate.

BEEF AND RED CABBAGE SOUP

Steps:

• Heat a large soup pot over medium-high heat. Cook and stir ground beef in the hot pot until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and discard grease.
• Add onion and carrot to beef. Saute until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes, adding garlic during the last minute. Add cabbage, broth, water, pinto beans, tomato paste, salt, cumin, and pepper; bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 2 hours.

ROASTED RED CABBAGE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• Slice cabbage into thin strips. I like to make mine about 1/8 to 1/4 inch wide. This ensures I'll get those crispy bits I want. Spread the shredded cabbage on a large baking sheet.
• Drizzle olive oil over the cabbage.
• Add salt.
• Bake for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally. You will know it's done because you'll have some beautiful brown crispy pieces mixed in with the bright purple.

SAUTEED RED CABBAGE

Steps:

• Halve, core, and thinly slice red cabbage.
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add cabbage and red-wine vinegar; season with coarse salt and ground pepper. Cook, tossing frequently, until cabbage is crisp-tender, about 15 minutes (add a splash of water if pan becomes dry).
• Add light-brown sugar; toss until dissolved, about 30 seconds. Season again with salt and pepper, as desired.

FRIED HAM AND CABBAGE

Steps:

• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ham and onion; cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is translucent, about 8 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes.
• Add cabbage; cook and stir for 5 minutes. Add broth and season with salt and pepper. Cover and cook for 8 minutes.
• Uncover and continue to cook until cabbage is tender, about 5 more minutes.

HAM AND CABBAGE CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter a 9x13-inch baking dish.
• Spread out chopped ham on the bottom of the prepared dish.
• Set hash browns on a microwave-safe plate and microwave on high power for 1 minute and 30 seconds. Potatoes should be thawed and feel slightly warm to the touch, but not be cooked. Set aside.
• Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium heat and cook onions until they are just starting to turn clear, 2 to 3 minutes. Add chopped cabbage and continue to cook, stirring often, until cabbage wilts down a little but is still crisp, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in shredded raw carrots and microwaved hash browns, then add mixture to the baking dish.
• Wipe out the skillet and melt the remaining 3 tablespoons butter over medium heat. Combine all-purpose flour, salt, dry mustard, and white pepper in a small bowl. Sprinkle flour and seasonings over the melted butter and stir, constantly, until flour and butter are well mixed and the mixture is bubbly, about 3 minutes. Allow to bubble for 1 minute, while stirring.
• Gradually pour in milk, stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Cook, stirring, until the mixture boils and thickens, 3 to 5 minutes. If the mixture is too thick, stir in an additional 3 to 4 tablespoons milk. Remove from heat.
• Add half of the grated Cheddar cheese and stir until it is melted, then add the remaining half and repeat.
• Pour sauce over the casserole and top with crumbled bacon and cracker crumbs.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the top is bubbly and brown, 30 to 35 minutes. Serve warm.
