Method

  1. Heat the oil in a large pan and brown the sausages all over. Add the onions and cook until softened. Then tip in the cabbage, sugar, red wine, a pinch of salt and a shake of chilli sauce. Cover the pan and lower the heat. Cook gently for about an hour, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage is soft.
  2. For the last few minutes, take the lid off the pan and raise the heat to boil down the juices so they just coat the cabbage. Season. (You can make this a couple of days ahead and reheat it gently before serving.) Pass round soured cream or crème fraîche so everyone can put a splodge on their cabbage.

    OMG this is completely delicious. it is now a firm favourite served with creamy mash and asked for weekly. i cook it for ages and have even put it in the oven. freezes superbly and if you use the bratwurst sausages from lidl they are excellent with it.
