Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

One 14-ounce bag coleslaw mix (traditional mix of green cabbage and carrots)
1/2 small onion
2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons sugar
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
1/8 teaspoon dry mustard powder
Pinch paprika
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • Working with half of the bag at a time, chop the coleslaw mix into 1/8-inch pieces (about the width of the carrots). Transfer to a large bowl. Dice enough of the onion into 1/8-inch pieces to yield 1/4 cup. Transfer to a fine-mesh strainer and rinse with cold water for 1 minute to soften the flavor. Gently wring out the onions in a paper towel and then stir into the coleslaw mix.
  • In a pint jar or other container with a tight-fitting lid, stir together the sugar and 3 tablespoons water until the sugar dissolves a bit. Add the mayonnaise, vinegar, mustard powder, paprika and 1/2 teaspoon salt, put on the lid and shake vigorously until completely combined. Stir the dressing into the coleslaw, then set aside for 10 minutes to marinate and soften, stirring a few times. Add more salt, if needed. The coleslaw will keep, covered in the refrigerator, for up to 1 day.

CLASSIC HOMEMADE COLESLAW

Forget shop-bought versions and make a homemade slaw. It's an ideal side dish for barbecues or to serve with burgers, salads, sandwiches and more

Provided by Anna Glover

Categories     Side dish

Time 15m

Yield Serves 8 as a side

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 small white cabbage or ½ large
4 carrots, peeled
1 large red onion
½ small bunch dill, chives, parsley or coriander, finely chopped (optional)
1 tbsp Dijon mustard
50g mayonnaise
50g yogurt, soured cream or more mayo
1-2 tbsp white wine vinegar
a few pinches of paprika

Steps:

  • Remove any bruised or damaged outer cabbage leaves. Halve through the stem, and remove the dense core with a sharp knife and discard. Put cut side down onto a chopping board, and slice as finely as you can into thin shreds. You can also do this on a mandoline (you might want to quarter before slicing) or in a food processor with the shredding attachment. Tip into a bowl.
  • Grate the carrots on a box grater to coarsely shred, or cut into thin strips using a julienne peeled or the grater attachment on the food processor. Tip into the bowl. Finely slice the onion, and thin as you can, and add to the bowl with the other veg. Add the herbs if using. A mixture is nice if you have some to use up.
  • In a jug, whisk the mustard, mayo, yogurt and vinegar. Season well, and taste for sharpness and creamy. Add more vinegar if you like.
  • Tip the dressing into the veg bowl, and mix everything together well with a large spoon. Stir so all the veg gets coated lightly in the dressing. Sprinkle with a few pinches of paprika, and serve straight away. Can be covered and chilled for up to 3 days. Mix well before serving.

Tips:

  • Use a sharp knife or mandolin to thinly slice the cabbage and carrots. This will help the coleslaw to have a crisp texture.
  • Shred the cabbage by hand instead of using a food processor. This will help to prevent the cabbage from becoming too mushy.
  • Use a combination of mayonnaise and sour cream for the dressing. This will give the coleslaw a creamy and tangy flavor.
  • Add some sweetness to the coleslaw with a little bit of sugar or honey.
  • Season the coleslaw with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Chill the coleslaw for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will help the flavors to meld together.

Conclusion:

Coleslaw is a delicious and versatile side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of meals. It is a great way to add some extra vegetables to your diet, and it is also a crowd-pleaser.
