Czerwona kapusta jabłkami

Czerwona kapusta jabłkami

If like me you’re not fluent in Polish, this is the Red Cabbage side in the foreground!

Ingredients:-

1/3 of a Red Cabbage, shredded
½ a Cooking Apple, grated
½ Tsp of Salt
2 Tbsp of Margarine
2 Tbsp of Plain Flour (Gluten free for us)
30ml of Cider Vinegar
½ Tsp of Sugar
1 Bay Leaf
2 Allspice Berries
4 Whole Peppercorns
300ml of Water

Method:-

(1) Heat the Cabbage in Water just enough the soften it.
(2) In a pan melt the Margarine then add the Flour and stir to brown for 30 seconds.
(3) Add the Cabbage and the liquid.
(4) Add the Vinegar, Allspice, Apple and Sugar, stirring well.
(5) Cook over a medium heat until the water evaporates, stirring occasionally.

We love acidified Red Cabbage and this version with Allspice Berries had a real wow factor.

Hazelnut Pesto

It’s very early for Hazel Nuts this year. But what falls gets eaten here!

Ingredients:-

Hazel Nuts
Olive or Rice Husk Oil
Fresh Basil
White Wine Vinegar
Salt

Method:-

(1) Put the nuts in the oven at 200C and roast for 10 minutes. This stops the Pesto going moldy.
(2) Allow to cool and then batter with a rolling pin the get the nuts out of the shells. Do not hit your thumb, it hurts!
(3) In a blender add all the ingredients and wuzz until it’s reasonably fine grained.

I like Pesto with a bit of bite so I didn’t wuzz it up as much as some folk might like.
