                                1. Melt the butter in a large heavy saucepan and add the onions. 2. Cook and stir over medium heat until they soften. 3. Add the apple slices and saute for 5 minutes. 4. Core the cabbages and slice them very very thin. 5. Add to the saucepan with 1/3 of the champagne, the sugar, lemon zest,salt and lemon juice. 6. Bring to a boil and simmer gently, covered for 15 minutes. 7. Add the remaining champagne and a grind or two of pepper and simmer, uncovered for 10 minutes. 8. Serve immediately. 9. The cabbage stays fairly crisp because of the acid in the champagne and lemon.                              |
