    Clean, wash and cut the cabbage into strips. Peel and slice the onion. Heat 2 tablespoons of duck fat (from the stock), fry onion in it. Add sugar, melt and stir in vinegar. Add cabbage, stock, juice and spices. Cover and cook for about 45 minutes. Peel the potatoes and grate them directly into the cabbage. Season to taste with liqueur and spices

    Keep the duck warm. Degrease the stock well, sieve and bring to the boil. Stir starch and 1-2 tbsp. water until smooth. Thicken the stock and season to taste. Serve and garnish. Serve with apricot halves, filled with redcurrant jelly or cranberries
