Heat clarified butter in a roasting pan and fry the meat thoroughly all around. Add drained vegetables and fry well. Deglaze with half of the marinade. Cover and stew for about 1 1/2 hours at medium heat. After 1 hour add 1/4 litre water. In the meantime clean, wash and quarter the savoy cabbage and cut out the stalk. Cut cabbage into fine strips and cook in boiling salted water for 8-12 minutes. Then drain. Peel the remaining onion and chop finely. Sauté in hot fat shortly before serving. Braise the cabbage for about 5 minutes while turning.
