Method

step 1

Remove the tough stem from the cabbage, then shred it thinly. Tip into a large pan (with a lid), and stir in the onion, beetroot (grated and chunks), vinegar, sugar, cordial and allspice with 250ml water and some seasoning.
step 2

Bring to a simmer, then reduce the heat and cover with a lid. Cook gently for 1 hour 15 minutes.
step 3

After 1 hour, heat 2 tsp oil in a pan and brown the sausages all over. Stir them into the cabbage with the raisins (plus a drop more water if it’s looking dry), re-cover and cook for another 20-30 minutes, until the sausages are cooked through. Spoon into bowls alongside mash, or eat with buttered soda bread.
