Provencal cabbage with apples and cranberries
10 servings
60 minutes
An intricate recipe, in which, in addition to cabbage as such, cranberries, apples and spices actively participate. As a result, Provencal cabbage can not only claim the role of a vodka snack, but will also make an ideal pair with stewed pork and grilled sausages. Although it can be served with something more gastronomic, for example, with fried duck breast, such a side dish will not look simple.
