This is SO good! Very diet-friendly also, especially if you cut back the butter just enough to lightly coat the cabbage and prevent sticking. I used sugar free blackberry jam, I had it on hand, and it provided the necessary tartness. I also put the jam in the microwave for a few (10?) seconds to make it runny enough to drizzle. I had cut the recipe to 1/4, which would require 1/2 an apple (the Honeycrisp I had on hand worked well tastewise) but I will increase the apple to at least double that amount because after the amount of oven time, there is not much discernable apple remaining! Love the char. So glad I had that leftover red cabbage to use up!

WOW! This is amazing! Easy to make and one of the best new recipes I've tried in a long time. Next time I will put in more apples, even though I used two large ones. Thankyou!

Only a few ingredients and so outstanding. I've made this with apricot and strawberry-rhubarb jams. Both were amazing. Added sausages once as well. This is company worthy. Thank you!

I LOVED this. I added carrots and red onion and braised on stovetop as no room in oven at time. SO good.

I usually let it go for about an hourlong an hour and a half. But check it... There is definitely a point it "seems" done, but if you let it go a little longer it gets so much better: soft, silky, sweet and tart. Really nice with pork and a creamy cauliflower purée.

I had tons of leftovers (we were just two people eating it), so I turned the rest into soup -- just added chicken stock and water, simmered for 10 minutes, and puréed it. It seems to have turned out all right, but I was just making it up, really... Advice welcome on other/better things to do with leftover braised red cabbage!

Fabulous recipe. Absolutely delicious. It's close to being dessert. Used granny smith apples, and black current 100% fruit jam. Thanks Nicholas.

Jara, I have used strawberry jam , mixed berry jam or grape jelly. My family in Germany uses sugar. Check out my version of red cabbage I posted.

What can I substitute for the currant jelly? I have a beautiful red cabbage at home I'd love to try this with, and some berry and jalapeno jellies.

Honestly, Jara, I'm sure you can -- but I never have. I bet most berry jellies would be great, though.
