I remember the first time I got a head of read cabbage in my vegetable box. Thinking, what the heck am I going to do with that, I starting googling and came across a great recipe for braised red cabbage that called for butter and brown sugar and vinegar. It was yummy, but the oil and brown sugar, defeated the purpose of having a vegetable in the first place.
So the next time I made braised cabbage, I just braised it with vinegar and it came out just as good. This is one of my favorite low-cal, high fiber dishes. But be ware: Cabbage has a high sulfur content, so like eggs cheese and beans, it can make you have gas that is particularly smelly. Sorry, there's really no delicate way to say that.
Step 1: Halve on head of cabbage and core. Then slice thinly.
Step 2: Place cabbage in large pot over medium heat, and add 1/4-1/2 cup vinegar. Start with a 1/4 cup and add more if it starts to dry out.
Step 3: Let cabbage braise until it reaches desire tenderness. About 30 minutes. Salt liberally.
