Time 35m

Yield 6 cups, 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

Ingredients

1 cup mayonnaise
6 cups cabbage
3 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon salt

Steps:

Finely shred the cabbage. Mix all ingredients in a large bowl and refrigerate for 30 minutes or until ready to serve.

Tips:

Use a sharp knife to thinly slice the cabbage and onion. This will help the coleslaw to absorb the dressing more easily and give it a more delicate texture.
If you don't have a food processor, you can grate the cabbage and onion by hand using a box grater. Just be sure to grate them finely so that they have a similar texture to the coleslaw made in a food processor.
To make the dressing, whisk together the mayonnaise, vinegar, sugar, celery seeds, and salt and pepper until smooth. You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice or a dash of hot sauce for extra flavor.
Once the dressing is made, toss it with the cabbage and onion until they are evenly coated. You can then cover the coleslaw and refrigerate it for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the coleslaw to become more flavorful.
Serve the coleslaw as a side dish with your favorite grilled or fried foods. It is also a great topping for hot dogs, hamburgers, and sandwiches.
