Coleslaw mix
- ½ Head (4 cups) white cabbage finely sliced
- 2 Large carrots grated
- ½ Medium red onion finely sliced
Dressing
- 4 tablespoon (¼ cup) Hellmans vegan mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon dijon mustard
- 2 teaspoon sugar can be substituted for maple syrup
- Salt and pepper to taste
Make the dressing
In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, sugar, & Dijon mustard, Add salt & pepper to season & adjust to your taste preference.
Prep the vegetables
You can either use a food processor to finely slice the cabbage and onion and grate the carrot or you can do this by hand.
If slicing by hand you will need your biggest, sharpest knife to get through the white cabbage. Finely slice both the cabbage and onion, then use a box grater for the carrot.
Mix Together
In a large bowl, combine the shredded cabbage, onion and grated carrots. Toss them together to mix well.
Pour the dressing over the cabbage, onion and carrots. Use a spatula or large spoon to thoroughly coat the vegetables with the dressing. Mix until everything is evenly coated.
Tips & Tricks
- Lots of the goodness is in the skin of the carrot, so no need to peel, just give the skin a good scrub.
- Use a food processor to prepare the vegetables for ease and quickness.
- If you are preparing the vegetables by hand, it's easier to finely slice the cabbage if you cut it in half down the middle first. You can then rest the flat side on the chopping board whilst you slice.
- If you can, once you have combined the vegetables with the dressing, leave the bowl covered to chill in the fridge for 30 minutes. This allows the flavours to meld together and chill the coleslaw.
- Give the coleslaw a final stir just before serving to ensure the dressing is evenly distributed.
