This salad is meant to be a side dish, but it would also be great as a condiment-for example, with roast lamb and pita.

Categories     side-dish

Time 2h20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 cup dried apricots, cut into 1/4-inch slices
1/2 cup shelled pistachios
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons sherry vinegar
1 pound carrots, peeled
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Add the apricots to a small saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a rapid simmer, then turn off the heat and let the apricots slightly soften, 3 to 5 minutes; strain and set aside.
  • Spread the pistachios on a rimmed baking sheet and toast until lightly browned and fragrant, 7 or 8 minutes; set aside.
  • Whisk the oil and vinegar in a medium bowl.
  • Shred the carrots on the large holes of a box grater. You can control the size of the shreds by changing the angle of the carrot; a more severe angle will create longer slices, whereas holding the carrot perpendicular to the holes will yield shorter, choppier pieces. Add the carrots and softened apricots to the dressing, season with salt and pepper and toss thoroughly to combine. Refrigerate the salad, covered, until the vinaigrette has been absorbed, up to 2 hours.
  • Chop the pistachios and add to the salad just before serving.

Categories     Salad     Coleslaw Recipes     With Mayo

Time 30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (12 ounce) package shredded coleslaw mix
4 ½ cups shredded red cabbage
3 tablespoons coarse kosher salt
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
2 large apples, cored
2 large carrots, grated
½ cup fat-free mayonnaise
½ cup fat free sour cream
1 teaspoon celery seed
ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Place a large colander into the sink. Place the coleslaw mix and red cabbage into the colander. Sprinkle lightly with salt, toss, and allow to stand 15 minutes.
  • Pour the vinegar into a large bowl. Grate apples into the bowl and toss with vinegar to keep from turning brown. Stir in the grated carrots, mayonnaise, sour cream, and celery seed until evenly coated. Season with black pepper to taste.
  • Rinse the coleslaw mix and cabbage with very cold water; drain, pressing out as much water as possible. Taste, and if still too salty, repeat the process. Pat dry with paper towels. Stir coleslaw and cabbage into apple mixture, and toss to coat evenly with dressing. Chill until ready to serve; stir before serving.

Tips:

  • Choose the right apples: Use a variety of apples that offer different flavors and textures. For a sweet and crunchy slaw, use Granny Smith apples. For a milder flavor, use Honeycrisp or Fuji apples. If you want a tart flavor, use Braeburn or Pink Lady apples.
  • Shred the vegetables finely: This will help the slaw absorb the dressing better and make it easier to eat.
  • Use a sharp knife or mandoline to slice the vegetables: This will help you get even, thin slices that will cook evenly.
  • Don't overdress the slaw: You want the dressing to coat the vegetables, but you don't want to drown them. Start with a small amount of dressing and add more as needed.
  • Let the slaw chill for at least 30 minutes before serving: This will allow the flavors to meld and the slaw to become more crisp.

Conclusion:

Apple carrot slaw with pistachios is a refreshing and flavorful side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a healthy and delicious side dish, give this apple carrot slaw a try!
