Sweet and Sour Red cabbage

Carol’s Sweet and Sour Red  Cabbage

Ingredients:

1 head of red cabbage, shredded

1 cup of water

1/2 cup of red wine vinegar

3/4 cup of brown sugar

salt and pepper to taste.

Method:

In a large pot, put in shredded red cabbage and remaining ingredients; stir to mix.  Turn on a low heat, just enough to simmer and cook for a couple of hours, stirring occasionally and taste for tartness. Add either vinegar or brown sugar if needed, depending on how sweet/sour a taste  you want. Sweet/sour taste will develop after cabbage has cooked down somewhat.
