Chookie, at your suggestion I cut up more cabbage and reused the marinade from the previous batch.
Perfect!! What does amaze me is that it doesn't cook the cabbage. This last batch I made in January and the cabbage is still crispy. The flavours of the marinade have intensified a little bit and it is so yummy.

How did I miss this one! Printed off and will try the next couple of days!!  Thanks, Chookie!

Chookie, is this something that improves with time in the fridge or should you aim to make just a day or so before needed?

Bedlam, I think it would keep for as least a week.  But mine never lasts this long.

This sounds great. I love anything pickled. Only dilemma is I don't really care for ginger. Would it be as good if ginger was omitted from the recipe? Love Belinda Jeffery's recipes.

I love ginger so think this makes this recipe.   That said,  there is no reason why you couldn't leave it out.  I would probably then up the chilli.

Thanks Chookie, I thought it would be a different addition to our Christmas table this year.

Thanks Chookie. I will  try without ginger but add garlic. Will report back on what it's like. Thanks for posting the recipe.

Chookie, McMich seems to have kept hers for a couple of months would that be correct? I love the sound of this but would be the only one eating it.

Wonder,  certainly looks like it.

We enjoyed this very much.  One of my staff asked for the recipe.  The ginger gives it a lovely freshness.  Thanks Chookie.
