Red Cabbage Apple Slaw Recipes

Steps:

• In a bowl, toss apple with lemon juice. Add the remaining ingredients and toss to coat. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Combine red cabbage and salt in a bowl and knead with your hands for a few minutes until cabbage is soft. Mix in apples.
• Whisk white balsamic vinegar and honey together in a cup. Whisk in oil. Drizzle over salad, mix well, and set aside for at least 1 hour for flavors to combine.

Steps:

• Toss cabbage, apple, and onions together in a large bowl.
• Whisk vinegar, sugar, olive oil, vegetable oil, Dijon mustard, and red pepper flakes together in a saucepan over medium heat; bring dressing to a simmer. Pour hot dressing over cabbage mixture and toss to coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate until flavors blend and slaw is cold, at least 1 hour.

Steps:

• Using a large knife, shred the cabbage and place in a large bowl with the carrot, apple and spring onions.
• Whisk together the mayonnaise, vinegar and oil. Season then toss with the salad. Serve or see our suggestions, below right.
• To make with roast chicken, snip the stalks from a punnet of mustard cress and stir half into the coleslaw with the wholegrain mustard. Divide between plates then scatter the roast chicken (leftovers or shop bought) on top. Sprinkle with the remaining cress and serve.
• To make with marinated chicken, heat the grill to high. Tear the leaves from a large bunch basil and scatter half of them into the coleslaw. Chop the rest and mix with a pinch ground fenugreek or coriander, zest and juice of the lime, olive oil and salt and pepper to taste. Rub the chicken breasts in the lime mix (leave to marinate for 10 mins if time), then grill for 6 mins on each side until golden and cooked through. Thickly slice and serve on top of the coleslaw.

Steps:

• Place the apples, cabbage and beetroot in a large bowl. Mix together the vinegar, lemon juice, oil and seasoning and pour over the cabbage mixture. Mix well, then stir in the pomegranate and parsley just before serving.

Steps:

• Whisk together the lemon juice, vinegar, salt, mustard, oil and yogurt.
• Shred the carrot, celery, radishes, cabbage and apples. I use a food processor for this, but you can also use a box grater, and for the cabbage you can use a chef's knife. Toss immediately with the dressing. Serve topped with crumbled feta if desired.

Steps:

• Remove any loose leaves from the cabbage head and reserve. Quarter the cabbage and thinly slice, on a mandoline if you have one. (The shreds should be about the thickness of a quarter.) Toss the cabbage in a large bowl with the pickling salt. Work the cabbage through your hands and massage for a minute or two, until the cabbage begins to "sweat" and release some water.
• Thinly slice, then julienne the green apple, leaving the peel on. (Again, use a mandoline if you have one.) Slice the ginger into coins and press with the side of your knife to bruise them slightly and release their oils. Add the apples, ginger and allspice berries to the cabbage and toss well. Let sit for an hour or two, until the cabbage has released quite a bit of water.
• Pack the cabbage mixture into a large, wide-mouthed crock and press down very firmly until the liquid the cabbage has released covers it. (Depending on the age of your cabbage, it may release less water; a fresher cabbage will release a lot of water, while a cabbage that has been stored all winter will release less.) If the cabbage is not covered, mix together 1 quart cold water and 4 1/2 teaspoons pickling salt until dissolved and pour over enough to cover the cabbage.
• Use a couple of the reserved whole cabbage leaves to cover the surface of the cabbage. Cover with a plate (or the weight provided, if you have a fermenting crock) and set something heavy on top to weight it. (You can use cans. Many people like to use a resealable plastic bag filled with the same salted water solution used above because it weights evenly and if it leaks, it doesn't ruin the fermentation process.) Store the crock in a cool, dry place.
• Check the kraut after 2 days. There should be a few bubbles around the sides. Skim any scum that has risen to the surface. Check the kraut every few days and repeat skimming, if needed. Depending on the temperature of your room, the kraut should be ready after about a week. (Some people ferment for a couple of weeks or more, depending on how funky they want their kraut to be.)
• Divide the kraut and pack into jars. Store in the refrigerator. Drain and rinse the kraut well (discarding any ginger pieces) before using.

Steps:

• Combine cabbage and cranberries in a large bowl.
• Combine vinegar and next 5 ingredients (vinegar through pepper), stirring with a whisk.
• Drizzle over cabbage mixture, tossing gently to coat.
• Cover and chill 2 hours.
• Add apple, and toss well to combine.
• Sprinkle with pecans.

Steps:

• Make the dressing by mixing all the ingredients together in a jar - giving them all a good shake. The dressing can be made up to 2 days beforehand and stored in a cool place.
• Place all the prepared vegetables and the apple in a large mixing bowl and mix by hand.
• One hour before serving add the dressing and mix well, allowing the flavours to infuse together.
• Serve in an attractive serving bowl, sprinkling on the pecan nuts just before serving; give them a little mix, leaving some on top.
• This coleslaw can also be garnished with finely chopped parsley, for extra colour.

Steps:

• In a jar with a tight-fitting lid, combine the oil, vinegar, honey, salt and mustard; shake well. Place cabbage in a large bowl; add dressing and toss to coat. Refrigerate until serving.
