Calories: 52kcal
Ingredients
- 2 cups white cabbage shredded
- 2 cups red cabbage shredded
- 1 cup radishes topped and tailed, finely diced
- ¾ cup carrot shredded
- ¼ cup green onion finely diced
- ¼ cup cilantro diced
Honey dressing
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoon apple cider vinegar or white distilled vinegar
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1 tablespoon grated ginger root
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
- ⅛ teaspoon black pepper optional
Instructions
- Use a sharp knife, mandolin or box grater to shred the cabbage, and a box grater to grate the carrot. Finely dice the green onion and cilantro. Dice the radishes finely into either matchstick size pieces or rounds if you prefer. Add to a large bowl.
- Combine the olive oil, apple cider vinegar, honey, grated fresh ginger, salt and black pepper (if using) to a bowl or jar. Whisk together to make the dressing.
- Pour the dressing over the slaw ingredients and toss through to coat the vegetables.
Notes
- I like to use a mix of radishes, but you can use one type, such as French breakfast radishes, which are quite mild with a little peppery flavor.
- Shred the cabbage quite finely so it feels quite light.
- If green onion doesn't work for you, a small amount of white onion can be used as a swap.
- Apple juice or pomegranate juice can be used as a swap for the vinegar. It won't have quite the same acidic taste, but will still be flavorful.
