I've got to share this with you. I couldn't post it as a meal on it's own as that just wouldn't be right, but it definitely deserves a post of it's own.
This Ladies and Gentlemen, is my brothers coleslaw recipe.
Whenever we have a family get together, we generally have a large bowl of coleslaw made up to help us get through the general blandness of a salad.
Whether it's myself or my brother, we can guarantee it'll end up being the same recipe.
The recipe works with both red and white cabbage, but for tradition, we're going to stick to white cabbage for now.
Ingredients:
1 head of white cabbage, finely shredded
2 small onions, 1 grated, 1 finely chopped
2 large carrots, grated
2 lemons, halved, juiced
Mayonnaise
Smoked paprika
Method:
Shred the cabbage as finely as you can get it (a good knife is recommended) and add to a bowl.
Grate over the carrot and one of the onions. Add the chopped onion and then pour over the juice of the two lemons.
Finely grate a small amount of lemon zest and stir thoroughly.
Add as much mayonnaise as you are comfortable with. (For a whole head of cabbage, I tend to use 1/2 to 3/4 of a large jar.)
Sprinkle enough paprika that you can see the speckles throughout when stirred.
To serve, add another sprinkle of paprika.
