This simple coleslaw has a fresh, savory flavor that can't be beat. It's been a big hit for me at potlucks, and it's quick and inexpensive to make.
You will need:
-
1/2 green cabbage
-
Leek
-
Carrots
-
Parsley
-
Vinegar
-
Cold-pressed olive oil
-
Salt
Start by dicing the half cabbage. Dice the leeks until you have 1/2 cup, and add to the cabbage. Use a food processor to chop the carrots finely, and add 1/2 cup of those too. Chop 1/4 cup parsley and add that in.
Add one tablespoon each of vinegar and olive oil, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
This recipe is best made ahead of time and allowed to sit. The ingredients stay crunchy for a long time, and sitting allows the flavors to mingle well.
This coleslaw is also delicious in sandwiches.
(I used a little more vinegar and let it sit overnight in the fridge)
I am always very concerned to buy veggies in their season. Cabbage, leek and carrots are ok to buy in the winter season and come together to a suprisingly crunchy salad - I never had raw cabbage and that's a shame! Sadly, there was nothing left to try it in a sandwitch.
Thank you very much for sharing this great recipe!
