Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 tablespoon mild olive oil -- or vegetable oil (to 2)
2 teaspoons ginger root -- finely minced or grated
1 Granny Smith apple -- peeled, cored and coarsely grated
1/2 head green cabbage -- (3/4 pound) quartered, cored and thinly sliced
2 tablespoons mirin -- (Japanese sweet cooking wine)
2 tablespoons water
Salt
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar

Add enough of the oil to lightly coat the bottom of a large saute pan or skillet, and heat over medium-high heat. Add the ginger and cook for 1 minute, then add the apple and cook for about 3 minutes, stirring, until the apple starts to soften. Add the cabbage, then the mirin, water and salt to taste. Cook about 8 minutes, using tongs to turn the mixture over every minute or so, until it has softened and the liquid has almost all evaporated. Add the vinegar and cook for 2 minutes. Serve hot or keep warm until ready to serve.

This warm slaw is as much a condiment as it is a side dish. Spoon it over roasted or grilled [C favorites] or under sauteed [shell favorite], or serve it with roast [favorites]. Like most cooked cabbage dishes, this tastes best the day it's made.

For a wine pairing, try a supple, full-flavored wine, such as the Primo Palatum 1997 Jurancon (France, $30), whose apricot and apple flavors are accented by light spice.
