The Best Red Cabbage Ragu - A Hearty & Warming Recipe!

Red cabbage is one of those vegetables that most people seem to only enjoy at Christmas or with a roast. But red cabbage is so much more. It’s meaty, rich and so versatile. In this recipe it forms a great backing for this rich and decadent ragu sauce.

[@dajanadedic5133]

Hey there, just letting you know I made this ragu for Christmas (I recently moved to Germany and they love stewed red cabbage but I wanted to make a fancier version hehe) and it was delicious! Massive hit with my family here, will be making again for sure ☺️

[@LowlyFood]

Lovely to hear Dajana, glad you and your family enjoyed it

@@LowlyFood Okay so I made it yesterday. Both me and my girlfriend loved it! I made quite a large batch so I will be enjoying it a few more times soon. Thank you for sharing this recipe and many more.

[@LowlyFood]

That's so nice to hear. Thanks for the feedback!

[@crazyaboutMBB]

Hey! It looks amazing! I have some left over mushrooms, do you think they would fit in nicely?

[@pamsmith6204]

Delicious

[@LowlyFood]

Thanks Pam !

[@woman8133]

I discovered your channel yesterday and had been craving this since last night. I made it today for lunch! unfortunately I didn't have any red wine in the house and was too impatient to wait so tried to improvise by using some pomegranate molasses and apple cider vinegar for the acidity, it was really tasty especially accompanied with buttery mash! Thank you!

[@LowlyFood]

So glad you enjoyed it

[@sppenceslice300]

your craving is understandable, he is quite cute. and i adore the kitchen

[@navjotnijjar8119]

Oh thanks for the tip of an alternative to red wine as we don't consume alcohol and I really wanted to try this. Appreciated

[@antistaticandi]

I still can't understand why your channel isn't bigger.

[@sheleluna5728]

Looks delicious, my son decided to go vegan, so I am always looking for new recipes. Thank you

[@LowlyFood]

Thanks shele, glad I could help out!

[@lilya5892]

I don't have any cooking wine, what can I use instead?

[@mariodoueiry4315]

hello ! this looks so yummy but is it possible to substitute the red wine by something else and the sugar by a sweeter? I am trying to reduce the amount of calories, with a non sticking pan I can get rid of the oil ... and how can I give it consistency without the flour ? again of a matter of calories .... thank you in advance !

[@LowlyFood]

Hey mario, you could substitute the red wine with some red grape juice and a teaspoon of vinegar. I wouldn’t recommend using sweetener, just remove the sugar. Removing the oil should be fine - I’d substitute water to soften the vegetables. Hope this helps

[@nutget2565]

Can you please suggest a substitute for the red wine ?

[@LowlyFood]

You can use a mixture of red grape juice and Balsamic Vinegar. For the 180ml of red wine use 160ml of red grape juice and a tablespoon of vinegar.

I got my first order from Imperfect Produce. I got a large red cabbage just for fun, and a lb of lamb. The lamb is between a shoulder and a shank. So I’ll brown those in 1 1/2 in chunks. I’m thinking I can use the aromatics, tomato, liquids and spices to braise the the lamb for an hour.. then add the cabbage. Is this a vegan channel? Not sure but you seem like you’d know anyway.

[@LowlyFood]

Hey hey, I would recommend adding the lamb in with everything, cabbage included, and braising for at least an hour. It won’t harm the dish to braise longer than that if needed. Yes this is a vegan channel but I was omni before and always happy to help with cooking questions.

[@dbalwin01]

@@LowlyFood Thanks for the advice. I’ll let you know how it goes :) maybe I’ll do 1/2 the cabbage at first and the other at the end. I want a little texture. Relying on the veg to feed a fam of 4, especially for my two teenage girls who have no interest in lamb or cabbage. I saw that red cabbage has iron and of course lamb does too. There is a real need for iron in the diet once a month for women and girls. I’ve got to bring my A game..

[@dbalwin01]

I made it for dinner tonight and added all of the cabbage as you suggested. Still had wonderful texture even after cooking for an hour. The lamb was already cut into pretty small prices which I wasn’t expecting. It was delish and surprisingly rich. So glad I only had that 1lb of lamb. Went so well with mashed potatoes but I really loved it with the baguette. So so good, thanks for the inspiration!

[@LowlyFood]

Good to hear

[@jayasreekilaru8158]

Could you please suggest alternative to tomatoes,my mom is allergic to them and your recipe looks too good to pass

[@LowlyFood]

Hmm, real tricky as this is a ragu so tomatoes are pretty essential. However you could try substituting tomatoes red peppers. Use about 4 large peppers seeds and stem removed and the blended into a paste

[@Anthony-ju1fb]

I don't know about the tomatoes in there though

[@nobody-in-spe]

why the flour?

[@LowlyFood]

Thickens the sauce. You can omit if you want, but I would recommend for a really smooth sauce

[@toddcott9510]

Great, but sugar is poison. I might try it with honey. Thank

[@Daniel-xu6kd]

I like the lack of cuts, angles and music.. reminds me of 80s 90s...simple less eratic. easy to follow and more calming. I love JW but he's too loud

[@AlphaLifeMastery1]

Just be careful of that plastic cutting board better get wooden then u eat tons of micro plastic but up to u 👍

[@ilariavitolo6175]

That's one hot piece of meat for sure.

[@orionlottering7349]

Thats not a red cabbage, thats a black cabbage...

[@LowlyFood]

Hmm I don't believe so, black cabbage has a thick central stalk and produces much looser leaves. Perhaps you're confusing it?

[@ikvangalen6101]

This meal is around 88% less polluting than the average UK meal. Are you ok????? What ???!!! Never in my life have I seen something thát ridiculous in a recipe!!!

[@pa6491]

Tongs will toss the cabbage better than the wooden spoon. WTF.
