Categories     side-dish

Time 2h20m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 small head red cabbage (about 1 3/4 pounds)
1 bunch medium carrots, peeled (about 5)
2 tablespoons kosher salt
2 Granny Smith apples
6 scallions (white and green parts), sliced
1 bunch watercress
3 tablespoons cider vinegar
3 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon celery seeds or 2 teaspoons caraway seeds
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • For the salad: Quarter and core the cabbage. Set up a food processor with the slicing blade. Slice the cabbage and then transfer it to a colander. Switch to the grating blade and shred the carrots; add to cabbage. Toss the cabbage and carrots with the salt and set colander in the sink until the vegetables wilt, 1 to 4 hours. Rinse cabbage mixture thoroughly in cold water and spin it dry in a salad spinner.
  • Meanwhile, make the dressing: Whisk the vinegar with the honey, mustard, celery seeds, salt, and black pepper to taste in a small bowl. Gradually whisk in the olive oil, starting with a few drops and then adding the rest in a steady stream to make a smooth, slightly thick dressing.
  • Quarter, core, and shred the apples. Toss the cabbage mixture with the apples, scallions, and about 1¿2 cup of the dressing. Refrigerate until chilled and the flavors come together, about 1 hour. When ready to serve, toss the watercress with the remaining dressing. Make a ring on a platter with the watercress, and mound the coleslaw in the middle of the ring.

CONFETTI COLESLAW WITH CILANTRO



Confetti Coleslaw With Cilantro image

This recipe is traditionally called "California Cole Slaw", but I made some changes by reworking the recipe. The pretty contrast of colors reminded me of confetti, hence the name. I found the original version "California Cole Slaw" recipe while going through my deceased mother-in-laws recipes. Thought I'd make a couple ingredient changes and wala. Here's the finished product. It is even kid friendly. Hope you enjoy it.

LINDA'S FANTABULOUSLY EASY CREAMY LOW CARB CONFETTI COLE SLAW



Linda's Fantabulously Easy Creamy Low Carb Confetti Cole Slaw image

Cole Slaw is pretty good eating with a slab of ribs or at a picnic with burgers. This cole slaw is creamy and very easy to make with the fine shredder disk on your cuisinart. You can shred by hand too, but we like the fine shredder and the fine grater on the Cuisi.

It is almost the end of summer and bar-b-que's will be replaced by stews and chile cook-offs. I wanted to prepare a slightly different salad to serve with the grilled tilapia, and a tribute to fall with all it's beautiful colors.
