How to make Coleslaw


Coleslaw is a very common side dish. Growing up I always see Coleslaw with almost every meat dish. Coleslaw with hamburger, coleslaw with barbecue, coleslaw with fried chicken...The list goes on and on.

And we we never tire of serving Coleslaw because its simple to make, the ingredients are readily available, and its a very colorful vegetable side dish - making the Coleslaw a very healthy dish.

This Coleslaw recipe serves four to six persons.

Ingredients
1/4 head of cabbage
3 young carrots
2 apples
2 stalks white celery
salt
pepper
4 tablespoons (80 ml) cream
4 tablespoons (80 ml) mayonnaise
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1 tablespoon chopped parsley


Shred the cabbage finely.
Grate the carrots.
Peel, core and chop the apples.
Chop the celery.
Place all in a salad bowl, sprinkle with salt and pepper and toss.

Combine mayonnaise and cream, mix well.
Pour over the salad, toss well, then cover and chill for 1 hour.

At serving, sprinkle salad with walnuts and parsley and toss.

There you have it, your very own homemade Coleslaw.

Suggestion: Coleslaw goes well with barbecues.
