Drain the ham cubes and let them drain. Knead with dumpling dough, the rest of the marjoram and egg. Season with salt, pepper and nutmeg. Chill for about 30 minutes. Bring apple juice to the boil and let it simmer for about 5 minutes. Remove the bag. Add cabbage to the juice and braise covered for about 20 minutes.
