Red Cabbage À Liter’orange

Cut the cabbage in half. Cut away the stem, outermost leaves and thick ribs. Cut into eight slices.

Cut away the peel from the oranges together with the white skin. Now, over a container, remove the flesh from the intermediate membranes (fillet), collecting the juice for the sauce.

Place the cabbage slices in a sieve and season with a small amount of herb salt. Cook over steam for about forty minutes. During the last five minutes, add the orange fillets and warm them slightly.

Meanwhile, make the sauce: rinse 1/3 of the oranges well and pat dry. Peel off 2-3 narrow strips of peel with a peeler. Cut into fine strips (zests). Squeeze the oranges. Measure 2 dl juice and strain into a small pan.

Add zest, sugar and Cointreau and bring to a boil. Season with salt, pepper and a trace of ground cloves. Mix corn powder in cold water and thicken the sauce with it. Remove from heat and whisk in cold butter, one piece at a time.

Arrange the cabbage slices and orange fillets on warmed plates and cover with the hot sauce.

Serve with duck breast, game, spaetzli and glazed chestnuts.

Our tip: As an alternative to fresh herbs, you can also use frozen ones – these also stand out for their fresh taste!
