Red Cabbage with Pomegranate Molasses

Red Cabbage with Pomegranate Molasses

By OcadoLifePublished on 04 October 2022Syrupy, sweet and a little bit sour, pomegranate molasses adds a Middle-Eastern edge to this red cabbage recipe, which makes a perfect side dish for a roast dinner. The braised cabbage keeps its deep purple colour and a little bit of bite, but becomes soft and glossy while taking on the subtle spiced flavours of the cinnamon and star anise.

Ingredients

  • 1 red onion, sliced
  • 1 garlic clove, thinly sliced
  • 1 star anise

  • 1 red cabbage (about 1kg), cored and shredded
  • 100 g of soft brown sugar
  • 3 tbsp of pomegranate molasses
  • 1 tbsp of olive oil

Method

  • Step 1

    Heat the oil in a large pan over a medium heat and cook the onion for 3-4 mins to soften. Stir in the garlic, star anise and cinnamon stick and cook for another min, then add the cabbage, sugar and 200ml water.

  • Step 2
