Rotkohl (Red Cabbage and Apples)

2 tbls butter or margarine
1/2 head red cabbage, shredded
3 tbls lemon juice
2 apples, peeled and diced
2 tbls red currant jelly (grape jelly can be substituted)
2 cloves (or 1/8 tsp ground cloves)
About 1 cup vegetable broth/bouillon

In large pot, melt butter. Add cabbage and pour the lemon juice over the cabbage to preserve color. Add apples, jelly, cloves and about 1/4 cup of vegetable broth. Mix all ingredients together and simmer in the pot for 15 or 20 minutes. Add more vegetable broth as needed, being careful not to let the cabbage stick to the bottom of the pot or burn. The cabbage should not be overcooked. Remove from heat and serve.
