WOW!! Thanks so much BecR for recommending this recipe! I made everything as is using port, brown sugar and all of your optional items. What a tasty dish! I served this with Sauerbraten and garlic mashed potatoes. Mixing the cabbage along with the potatoes and gravy was a taste explosion. My whole family enjoyed this meal. Thanks for sharing!

Excellent recipe. Made it before christmas as the spices really lent itself to this season. My dinner guests all went home with the recipe and we had the leftovers the next day. My 1 year old daughter loved it too because of the sweetness. A lovely recipe which will be used time and time again in our family.

This was really outstanding! I made this for Mother's Day 2007, served with Wiener Schnitzel and Warm Potato Salad. I halved the recipe and it made enough for 4-6 generous servings. I did find that the bacon burned a little, even though I cooked it on the lowest heat for an hour and stirred frequently. This didn't effect the flavour though. I think next time, I might add a little more water during the cooking process. After simmering for an hour, there was no excess liquid, so I just stirred in the maple syrup and reheated without bothering with the extra 30 minutes of cooking uncovered. The taste was extraordinary - sweet with a rich flavour of the port. I think next time I will probably not halve the garam masala, but that's the only small change I'd make to this fabulous recipe. Thank you!
