    Baked Red Cabbage with Caraway

    For gorgeous colour and great flavour, serve this vegetable dish to complement the pork. It's easy to prepare and can be made in advance then cooked alongside the joint. Great served with leftovers, too.

    Cook's tips

    This dish improves with time, so make it the night before if you can. To reheat, stir in 2-3 tablespoons cold water, cover and gently cook over a medium heat for 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally until piping hot.

    Variation

    Look out for our range of prepared vegetables, which save time but don't compromise on flavour or quality. Try Waitrose Red Cabbage, from the chiller cabinet, or trimmed green beans or sugar snap peas, from the fruit and vegetable section.
