This a variation of a traditional recipe called 'blaukraut' (or 'rotkraut') that my lovely German mother-in-law would cook around Christmas (or Weinachten).
Her variation would include a sprinkle of juniper berries and a few cloves, as well as a good handful of fat sultanas. I went on to add (a lot of) port and stir in tablespoon of redcurrant jelly. Both mine and her recipe uses butter not sunflower oil, which I guess is less appropriate around here, but it doesn't half add to the flavour!
Try it with a baked ham (gammon) and a really good fruit-based chutney, like apricot and orange.
If you're wondering why 'bluakraut' - water the cabbage is rinsed in changes to a magical sapphire blue.
