A reprise of THE most visited blog post we’ve ever done! We thought it was worth highlighting again for that reason alone but it’s also a great coleslaw.
Jamie’s Favourite Coleslaw – serves 6 generously
- ½ a white cabbage, core removed and cut into quarters
- 1 small red onion, peeled
- 3 carrots, peeled
- 2 red apples, washed and cored
- a small bunch of flat-leaf parsley, leaves picked and roughly chopped
- juice of 1-2 lemons
- some mayonnaise
- 1 heaped tsp English mustard
Slice the cabbage as finely as possible or slice using a food processor. Then slice the onion in the same way and mix with the cabbage in a large bowl.
Julienne the carrots and apples with a mandolin or food processor or cut into matchsticks. Add to the bowl along with the chopped parsley, a few dollops of mayonnaise and the mustard. You can adjust the quantities of lemon juice and mayonnaise to how you like it. We just added the juice from one lemon and a few good dollops of mayonnaise. Season to taste and toss together.
