I love coleslaw but there's so much crap in shop bought slaw that I decided to make my own last night. I made the recipe up on the spot but have had a bit of a poke around the internet and its not vastly different from others out there. A lot is in the consistence - I like to use the large grater on my food processor to make this so its quite fine but you could slice by hand for a chunky slaw.
Please excuse the picture - this is all that is left from the mountain we made with this recipe, but we can't stop eating it!
This makes a *lot* - enough to fill my large food processor!
Ingredients
1 small white cabbage
2 small onions
3 carrots
english mustard (2 tsps)
cider vinegar (2 tbsps)
2/3 big jar of lite mayonnaise
Shred carrots, cabbage, onions and add rest of ingredients. Simple. Tastes possibly better the next day too! (keep in fridge). I reckon there's less than 70g carbs in the whole lot (a big serving is therefore about 7g max). Only calories are really in the mayonnaise and again depends on serving size but about 100 calories maximum per large serving.
I'm going to try a few variants on this - next one will be with slightly less mustard, a mooli (indian radish) and some lemon juice. I'll let you know how it turns out
