Classic Creamy Coleslaw Recipe

Ingredients

Here’s everything you’ll need to create this delicious coleslaw:

• • 1 red onion: Thinly sliced for a sharp, slightly sweet flavor.
  • 1 kg white cabbage: Shredded finely for that signature crunch.

• • 1 carrot: Grated to add sweetness and vibrant color.
  • 1 apple: Peeled, cored, and grated for a subtle fruity sweetness.
  • 2 tablespoons natural yogurt: Adds creaminess with a tangy note.

• • 1 tablespoon mayonnaise: For richness and a classic creamy texture.
  • 1 teaspoon spicy mustard: Enhances the flavor with a mild kick.
  • 1 teaspoon honey: Balances the tanginess with a hint of natural sweetness.

• • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar: Provides a mild acidity that ties the flavors together.
  • 1 clove garlic: Minced for depth of flavor.
  • Black pepper and salt to taste: For seasoning.

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the vegetables

1. 1. Start by peeling and thinly slicing the red onion. Place the slices in a bowl of cold water for 5 minutes to mellow their sharpness.
   2. Remove the outer leaves of the cabbage and finely shred it using a sharp knife or a mandoline.

1. Peel and grate the carrot and apple. The apple will add a lovely sweetness that balances the tangy dressing.

Step 2: Make the dressing

1. 1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the natural yogurt, mayonnaise, spicy mustard, honey, and rice vinegar.

1. Add the minced garlic and whisk everything together until smooth. Adjust the seasoning with salt and black pepper to taste.

Step 3: Combine the ingredients

1. 1. Drain the onion and pat it dry with a paper towel.

1. In the same large bowl as the dressing, add the shredded cabbage, grated carrot, grated apple, and sliced onion.
2. Toss everything together until the vegetables are evenly coated in the creamy dressing.

Step 4: Chill and serve

1. Transfer the coleslaw to a serving dish, cover it, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. This allows the flavors to meld together beautifully.
2. Serve cold as a side dish or topping, and enjoy!
