Ingredients:

Serving

1/4 cup chopped pork fat
1 large red onion, finely chopped
2 inches fresh ginger, peeled and finely chopped
1/2 cinnamon stick
1 large red cabbage , tough outer leaves removed, quartered, cored, and finely shredded
1 sprig fresh marjoram
1/2 tsp garam masala
1/2 cup red wine vinegar
1/2 cup ruby port or 1/2 cup madeira wine
1/2 cup brown sugar or 1/2 cup real maple syrup
1 bay leaf (optional)
1 whole clove (optional)
1 firm apple, chopped (optional)

Directions:

Cook the pork fat or bacon in a large skillet or dutch oven over low heat, stirring occasionally until it has rendered its fat, about 20 minutes for the pork fat or 10 minutes for the bacon.
Add the onion, ginger, and cinnamon stick, increase the heat to medium, and cook, stirring occasionally for about 5 minutes, until the onion has softened.
Add the cabbage, stirring and cooking over medium heat until some of the bits are slightly browned and caramelized, about 10 minutes (I do this in batches). Note: You can skip the browning step if you are in a hurry, but I find that it adds a particularly wonderful caramelized flavor to the finished dish. Now add the marjoram, garam masala, vinegar, and port or Madeira, and stir well. (Note: At this point add the optional bay leaf, whole clove, and chopped apple).
Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 1 to 1 1/4 hours, stirring occasionally to make sure the cabbage is not sticking to the bottom of the pan.
Remove the lid and cook, stirring frequently, for 15 minutes.
Stir in the brown sugar (or maple syrup) and cook for 15 minutes longer, or until most of the liquid has cooked away.
Remove the cinnamon stick and bay leaf before serving.
NOTE: If you can't find garam masala, use just a small dash each of ground black pepper, rock salt, cinnamon, & cardomom.
