Recipe: Christmassy red cabbage

I just love red cabbage for my roasted pork & duck 🙂
It is sooo delicious & great for that fat christmas food.

I don’t want that premade supermarkets red cabbage on glass, and the homemade version is just 10 times better.
Yum! I have added a delicious apple, to get some sourness to it 🙂
