Autumn Cabbage Stir-fry with bacon, apples and cider

Method

Makes 4 generous servings. Try with pork and apple sausages and mash.

1. In a large skillet or wok, dry-fry the bacon until crispy and golden, then remove it to a plate.
2. Add the oil to the pan and fry the onions over a medium heat until golden brown at the edges.
3. Now turn the heat up and add the cabbage, stirring continuously for about 3 minutes, until tender.
4. Return the bacon to the pan and add the apple, garlic, bay leaf and thyme, and season well with salt and black pepper. Toss the mixture around for a few seconds, then add the cider and cider vinegar and continue to cook, with the heat still high, for 1-2 minutes.
5. Remove the bay leaf, taste and season and serve.
