Wash the cabbage and remove the scruffy outer leaves. Quarter and cut away the tough white core on each cabbage section. Finely slice and place in a large pot. Add the cinnamon, cloves, sugar, vinegar and water. Heat slowly to boiling point over a low heat. Let simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 35 to 40 minutes until the cabbage is translucent and tender. Tip into a covered tureen and serve.
