Delicious  vegetable dish from central Europe which goes  well with roast pork, roast chicken, roast goose or duck.
You can prepare it either with cider vinegar , wine vinegar or just red wine. I like mine with cider vinegar as it seems to add  more kick to it. Tastes even better the following day. Suitable for vegetarian.

1 large red cabbage
1 large onion, peeled and left whole
1 large eating apple, peeled, cored and diced
4 cloves 
2 tablespoons of cider vinegar 
some water 
salt and pepper
cooking time : 1 1/2 hour

1. quarter cabbage , cut out the stalk and shred very fine 
   push the cloves into the onion and place into a  sauce pan
2. place layers of shredded cabbage, salt and pepper and apples into saucepan
3. pour the vinegar and water over it and let it cook very gently for 1 and half hour, stirring from time to time 
   check for seasoning and serve
4. Tip:  to make the cabbage shiny add 1 small finely grated potato for the last 10 minutes, stir in,  making sure not to let it stick to the bottom.
