[Healthy_Recipes_For_Diabetic_Friends] Bento Carmelized Red Cabbage - 25 g carbs

 

I used gingerale instead of ginger wine. Probably not as rich a taste, but it caramelized well. Its great to have a recipe for caramelized cabbage that doesn't include butter!

Serving Size  : 8     Preparation Time :0:00
Categories    : Condiment                       Vegan

  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
     1/2                red cabbage -- sliced finely
  1                     red onion -- sliced finely
  1           teaspoon  garlic -- chopped finely
     1/2      teaspoon  fresh chili pepper -- chopped finely
     1/3           cup  raw sugar
     1/3           cup  cider (or red wine) vinegar
     1/3           cup  ginger wine
     1/2      teaspoon  salt
     1/2           cup  red currant jelly
                           

Put first eight ingredients into a big pot and cook for 20 mins or so,
stirring often.
Add the red currant jelly and continue to cook until all the liquid has
reduced to a toffee-ish consistency.

Store in fridge, it lasts for months if you don't eat it. You can use it
cold or heat it up. Use it as a condiment or garnish rather than as a
vegetable.

Serves 8 as a condiment

AuthorNote: This recipe was kindly given to me by the chef at a café where
I had dinner a wee while ago. It was a garnish on a plate of paté and
bread, and totally delicious. I thought it'd make an excellent bento dish.
