Cabbage Salad

Cabbage Salad

Serves 4 – 30 mins

In our family I have a teenager who is averse to most green vegetables. They are looked at with disdain and eaten under duress, but this salad seems to tick all the boxes and she loves it(even if the colour is predominantly green!).

Ingredients

1/4 medium savoy cabbage shredded(if you have an mandolin I would suggest use it, makes the job so much quicker)
1 medium red onion finely chopped
1/2 long green cucumber seeded and chopped(sometimes I don’t bother seeding and again use the mandolin to save time)
1/2 cup fresh coriander chopped
2 tsp grated lime zest
1/3 of a cup(80ml) of lime juice
1 clove of garlic crushed
1/2 cup(125 ml)olive oil
1/2 tsp sugar
salt and pepper to taste

Method

Step one

In a large bowl combine cabbage, onion, cucumber and coriander and mix together .

Step Two

In a small bowl combine lime rind, lime juice, garlic, olive oil and sugar, whisk and add seasoning to taste.

Step Three

Add the dressing to the salad and mix well to combine then serve.
