A CLASSIC COLE SLAW RECIPE

A CLASSIC COLE SLAW RECIPE


½ (about 450g) head fresh white cabbage
1 large carrot
2 red apples
juice of half a lemon
½ small onion
½ pint mayonnaise
salt and pepper

Cut out the hard stem and remove any coarse outer leaves from the white cabbage. Slice it very fine and place in cold water to crisp for 30 minutes. Peel the carrot and onion and grate or finely slice them. Cut the red apples into quarters, remove the core, and then finely slice or chop them.
Drain the white cabbage well and place into a large mixing bowl. Add the onion, carrot and apples. Toss to jumble up the ingredients well. Add to this the mayonnaise and combine with a spoon until all ingredients are nicely coated.

Finally, season to taste with salt and pepper.

Cover and place in refrigerator to chill for 15 minutes.

Yield: 4 servings.
