Discard any tatty outer leaves from the cabbage, then quarter it and remove the core. Shred the rest very finely and put into a large bowl. Peel and soarsely grate the apples and add to the bowl with the raisins, honey and vinegar (measure the honey with a heated spoon and warm it slightly if it doesn't run easily). Mix well, chop the chives finely with sharp scissors and add to the bowl with a good seasoning of sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Mix well, cover and leave in a cool place for an hour or two so that the flavours can blend. Mix again and check the seasoning before serving.

Serves at least 8.
