🥗 Southern coleslaw

6 servings · prep 20 min · cook 0 min

Ingredients

• 1 small white cabbage, very finely sliced
• 2 carrots, grated
• 1/2 onion, grated
• 150 ml mayonnaise
• 3 tbsp cider vinegar
• 2 tbsp sugar
• 1 tsp mustard
• Salt, pepper, celery seed

Method

1. Slice the cabbage as finely as you can, by knife rather than food processor: the processor bruises it and makes it watery.
2. Salt it and let it drain 30 min in a colander, then squeeze it.
3. Whisk the mayonnaise, vinegar, sugar and mustard until the sugar dissolves.
4. Toss the cabbage, carrots and onion with the dressing.
5. Chill at least 2 h: coleslaw served straight away tastes of nothing.
6. Adjust the salt and vinegar just before serving, it mellows as it rests.
