DIY Coleslaw

For DIY coleslaw you require

1/2 cabbage, a firm cabbage not a savoy
1 carrot peeled and grated
1/2 an onion grated
salad cream or mayonnaise




Cut a cabbage into two down the middle with a big knife.
















Cut a v shape out of the core and discard it.




















Cut the cabbage in two.
Put half the cabbage cut flat side down on the cutting board. Cut into several lengths.















Squeeze the lengths together with one hand. Chop across the lengths to make shorter pieces.











Grate carrot and onion to add to it.





















Add salad cream or mayonnaise to bind it all together. Mayonnaise is thick and coleslaw works better with thinner salad cream.

Top with your favourites, Nuts, Cheese, or Pumpkin seeds. Goes well with baked potatoes, cold meats and in sandwiches.

What simple instructions - and fabulous demonstration photos - I'm inspired to give this a go. From a 1/10 cook - I'll surprise my family with this one.
