Try our delicious Cabbage Bredie! This traditional South African stew is packed with tender meat, fresh cabbage, and a blend of savory spices which will make your taste buds dance. Perfect for a cozy night in or sharing with loved ones.
Ingredients
- 1 kg stewing beef or stewing mutton
- 2 large onions, peeled and finely chopped
- 60 ml of oil
- 5ml allspice
- 2ml ground cloves
- Salt to taste
- Spices of your choice for taste. BBQ, steak, and chops, etc.
- 2 tsp garlic, grated
- 1 head of cabbage, rinsed and sliced, but be careful as it should not be too thin
- 6–8 potatoes, peeled and halved
Instructions
- In a large pot, on medium-high heat add the oil and onions and sauté.
- Add the meat and garlic and brown meat well, stirring occasionally.
- Next add the salt, pepper, and spices, (this dish is better with a little more pepper than usual) to a cup of water and cook on medium heat until meat is almost tender, about 40–50 minutes, depending on the cut of meat, adding a little water as required to prevent burning and make sure to stir occasionally.
- Add the cabbage and fry with the meat.
- Stir to allow cabbage to brown and cook evenly.
- Add potatoes to the dish and a little water if needed,
- Cook until potatoes are soft.
- Serve with white rice.

Good eve,
I’m trying out your cabbage recipe tomorrow. I also tried to download fir the recipes but was denied by your website. I’d be delighted to follow your recipes for our cold weather in South Africa..🙏 It’s only my husband and I ” Seniors” in my home.
Hi June, hope you will enjoy the cabbage recipe. I checked the recipe, and it’s an older one in a different format, that’s the reason why not able to print it. I will update it immediate for you, then you should find a “Print” button to use.
You can also click on the Cook Mode to prevent your screen from going dark while you need to see the recipe. Hope this will help.
Hi June, I have now managed to add another option, “Want To Save This Recipe?” to the recipes. Feel free to use this option for the bredie and others going forward. Hope you enjoyed the Cabbage Bredie.
