Recipe Coleslaw

COLESLAW

The Island Chef
A classic salad dish for summer. Any picnic or BBQ is not complete without a dish of coleslaw. Always use a good mayonnaise as that is at the heart of the coleslaw. Salad cream just does not do it for me!

Ingredients
  

  • 1 small white cabbage – finely sliced
  • 1 Small red cabbage – finely sliced
  • 500 g carrots - grated
  • 2 white onions – finely sliced optional
  • 2 large jars of mayonnaise
  • Season with salt and pepper

Instructions
 

  • Use as much of the white and red cabbage as needed. A quarter of each will serve up to 4 people.
  • In a large bowl mix the cabbages, carrots and onion together with the mayonnaise. Ensure the mayo covers the mixture well. It needs to be quite a wet mixture. It will last for 3 days in the fridge.
  • You can add other flavours and textures such as diced apple, raisins, pine nuts and so on.
