Fried Cabbage and Bacon Slaw ~ this warm bacon coleslaw has won our hearts this summer, and I have a feeling it's going to win yours too.

Provided by Sue Moran

Categories     Side Dish

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 5

12 ounces smoked bacon
1 small head green cabbage (outer leaves removed and cored)
1 small yellow onion (peeled, halved, and thinly sliced.)
1 medium carrot (peeled and cut in small dice)
salt and fresh cracked black pepper

Steps:

  • Cook the bacon until crisp, and drain. Reserve the grease, and crumble the bacon.
  • Halve or quarter the cabbage and shred it finely.
  • In a large skillet or wok, heat 3 tablespoons of the bacon grease and sauté the onion and carrot for a few minutes until softened. Add 2 to 3 more tablespoons of grease, and add the shredded cabbage along with half of the cooked bacon, and stir fry until the cabbage starts to brighten in color, turn glossy, and soften. This will only take a few minutes, but you can customize your slaw by cooking it a little less or more than this.
  • Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve the slaw hot or warm, topped with the rest of the crumbled bacon.
  • Leftover slaw stored in the refrigerator will stiffen due to the bacon grease. Bring the slaw to room temperature or heat it briefly in the microwave or in a frying pan before serving.

1 teaspoon ground black pepper
½ teaspoon onion powder

Tips:

  • To achieve a crispy coleslaw, ensure that it is well-drained before frying. Excess moisture will prevent the coleslaw from becoming crispy.
  • Do not overcrowd the pan when frying the coleslaw. This will result in soggy coleslaw instead of crispy coleslaw.
  • Use a large pan to fry the coleslaw in. This will allow the coleslaw to spread out and cook evenly.
  • Be careful not to overcook the coleslaw. Overcooked coleslaw will be tough and chewy. Cook the coleslaw until it is golden brown and crispy.
  • For a healthier version of fried coleslaw, bake it in the oven instead of frying it in oil.

Conclusion:

Fried coleslaw with bacon is a delicious and easy-to-make side dish. It is perfect for summer cookouts and picnics. The coleslaw is crispy and flavorful, and the bacon adds a smoky and savory flavor. This recipe is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
