ROTKRAUT
This is a good side dish for Sauerbraten.
1. 1 red cabbage
2. 2 tbsp of olive oil
3. ½ cup vinegar
4. ½ cup red wine
5. 3 tbsp sugar
6. 2 tbsp currant jelly
7. ½ tsp powdered cloves
8. 2 tart apples, peeled cored and sliced
Clean the head of cabbage. Shred it and dust it with salt and pepper. In a large sauce pan put the olive oil in and add the shredded cabbage and pour the vinegar over the cabbage. Over low heat cook it while stirring and pressing down the cabbage. Once it softens, add the red wine. In a small frying pan dissolve the sugar in 3 tbsp of water and cook till the syrup is brown. Add the syrup to the cabbage and cover the pan. Simmer for 1 ½ hours. Add the apples, jelly and cloves and simmer for 20 more minutes. Drain it and serve with dinner.

Thanks Noosie...I love the German recipes...
It’s really hard to find a good German cook book around here.
Since you're German, you might actually understand more of what he's talking about. LOL! Apparently Germans are getting into eating Kimchi!
