Made with simple ingredients, but still an absolutely classic side dish, you need to know how to make perfect coleslaw! Shop bought stuff just can’t come close to making this at home with just a few simple ingredients. It’s far crunchier, tastier and you know exactly what’s gone into it. Perfect for a barbecue side or to add to mains like Slow Cooked Pulled Pork or BBQ Pulled Chicken, it’s also great to have in for a tasty addition to salads or sandwiches.

Why you’ll love this Homemade Coleslaw recipe

⭐️ Colourful, crunchy and delicious ⭐️ Fantastic addition to lots of meals ⭐️ SO EASY to make This is the same recipe I’ve been making for years, the classic cabbage/carrots/onions combo with an easy store cupboard creamy dressing.  That little tang from the mustard, vinegar and chives are the game-changers!

HOmemade Coleslaw Ingredients Notes

Vegetables – White cabbage, red onion and carrots, all raw and finely shredded For the dressing – Mayonnaise, natural yoghurt, Dijon mustard and white wine vinegar Optional – Fresh chives really add something special

To avoid this, either store the vegetables and dressing separately and combine just before serving. OR After chopping the vegetables, add a teaspoon of sea salt to the chopped vegetables and leave for 20 minutes, then rinse very well, dry them and combine with your dressing as usual. This is supposed to draw the water out of the vegetables BEFORE dressing. ⭐ Add cubes of apple tossed in a little lemon juice (this stops the apple from turning brown) just before serving ⭐️ You could also add 75g of chopped walnuts before serving ⭐️ You could make the chopping job quicker by using the brilliant chopper I use for heaps of recipes
