Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1/4 cup butter -- (1/2 stick)
2 pound red cabbage -- thinly sliced (about 12 cups)
6 Tbsp sugar
2/3 cup balsamic vinegar

Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add cabbage and sauté until slightly wilted, about 5 minutes. Add sugar, toss to coat evenly. Add vinegar. Reduce heat to medium-low; cover, simmer until cabbage is tender, stirring often, about 30 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Serves 6-8.

ChupaNote: to make this dish vegan, substitute vegetable oil for butter or use an organic margarine. I also added 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes to the butter, infusing it shortly before adding the cabbage. Don't burn the pepper flakes; it tastes bitter.
