Coleslaw
Hello,
On my previous recipes (Cocido montañés) it remained half cabbage and I was thinking about what to do with it, until it came to my mind the coleslaw served on some buffet restaurants, so I investigated a bit and test the recipe I bring to you today:
Ingredients:
- Half cabbage
- 2 carrots
- 1 medium onion or 2 small
- 1 apple
- 1 lemon
- Mayonnaise
- Mustard
- Optionally some sugar
It will be better if you have a mandolin to cut ingredients, if not cut first onto strips half cabbage, then turn the strips and cut again so you will get thick and long strips. Cut one medium onion or two small the same way you cut first the half cabbage. It should be nice to cut 2 carrots in thick sticks, I found the way to do it cutting first thick sheets with a potato peeler and then cutting with a knife, but if you don’t have time or patience you can just grate the 2 carrots. Finally grate an apple.
On a big bowl add the cabbage, the onion, the carrot, the apple, the juice of one lemon and optionally a tablespoon of sugar. Finally prepare a sauce with 3 tablespoons of mayonnaise, between 1 and 2 tablespoons of mustard, and you can also add a bit of soy sauce. Mix well and then add to the bowl.
Now just mix everything in the bowl and also compress it. Cover with transparent film and let rest one night in the fridge. Remove from fridge at least half hour before serving.
