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!
Prep Time 30 minutes mins
Course Salad
Cuisine French
- 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
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.
