Ingredients
- 300 g white cabbage cored, shredded
- 300 g purple cabbage cored, shredded
- 300 g carrots peeled, shredded
- 1 small purple shallot sliced, pickled
- 1 bunch dill finely chopped
- 2 tbsp creamy mayonnaise
- 1 tsp wholegrain grain mustard
- 2 tbsp white wine vinegar
- ½ tsp sea salt
- ½ tsp white pepper
- ½ tsp fine sugar optional
Instructions
- After shredding your vegetables and finely chopping your dill, transfer the veggies and herbs to a big mixing bowl and combine them well.
- Make your coleslaw dressing in a measuring jug with spout, by combining the creamy mayonnaise, wholegrain grain mustard, white wine vinegar, sea salt, and white pepper. Stir together well, then taste and adjust for your palate. If it’s not creamy enough for you, add a little more mayonnaise. If it’s too sharp, add the optional sugar. Stir again well to combine.
- Pour the coleslaw dressing over the vegetables, thoroughly combine, and serve immediately. If you prefer a softer coleslaw, refrigerate for half an hour or so to let the cabbage soften a little and the flavours meld.
