Directions

1
Peel the vegetable onions and halve them crosswise. Spoon out the halves of the onions. Finely dice onion remains. Cut red cabbage into quarters, remove the outer leaves and the stalk. Cut red cabbage quarters into fine strips.
2
Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a saucepan and sauté 3/4 of the onion scraps in it. Add sugar, caramelize onion and deglaze with vinegar. Add red cabbage, apple juice, red wine, bay leaf, star anise, cinnamon, cloves and juniper and braise covered for about 45 minutes.
3
Meanwhile, cook the onion halves in boiling salted water for about 10 minutes. Remove and drain. Wash the smoked pork loin, dab dry and cut into medium-sized cubes. Season with pepper. About 15 minutes before the end of the cooking time of the red cabbage, peel and wash the potatoes and grate them into the red cabbage with a fine grater.
4
Peel and quarter the apple, remove the stalk and core. Cut the apple quarters into medium-sized cubes and add to the red cabbage. Season with salt and nutmeg. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a frying pan and sauté the cubes of smoked pork in it.
5
Remove and put aside. Sweat the remaining onion in the frying fat, deglaze with white wine and stock. Add cream and bring to the boil. Bind with sauce thickener. Add the smoked pork loin to the sauce and warm it up.
6
In the meantime, heat the remaining oil in a frying pan and fry the onion halves for about 5 minutes on both sides until golden brown. Season with salt and pepper. Fill the vegetable onions with red cabbage and arrange on a plate with the Kasseler ragout.
7
Sprinkle with chives as desired.
