Mix everything together briefly and steam for 10 minutes with the lid closed.
A large part of the broth can now be added. But withheld a little of it. You can see whether it is fully used while cooking.
The spices, i.e. bay leaf, cloves and juniper berries, either put in a permeable container such as a tea bag and close or put directly into the pot. In this case the spices have to be fished out afterwards. You can also add a little salt.
Mix everything well again and let simmer for another 30 minutes with the lid closed.
Stir every now and then and check whether there is still enough liquid to prevent it from burning. If necessary, add the broth.
When the red cabbage is nearly done, you can taste it.
In addition to salt and vinegar, there is also apricot jam. This ensures a nice round and fruity taste.
Now finish cooking for a few minutes and serve!
Notes
By the way, red cabbage usually tastes even better on the second day!
So it can be prepared perfectly the day before.
