1/2 small clove garlic
Kosher salt
1 medium lime
3 Tbs. mayonnaise
1/4 medium head Savoy cabbage, cored and thinly sliced (about 2 cups)
2 scallions, thinly sliced
2 Tbs. chopped fresh cilantro leaves
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

Chop the garlic, sprinkle it with a pinch of salt, and mash it into a paste with the side of a chef's knife. Finely grate the zest from half of the lime and then juice the whole lime. In a medium bowl, whisk the garlic, lime zest, 1 Tbs. of the juice, and the mayonnaise. Toss in the cabbage, scallions, and cilantro. Season with 1/4 tsp. salt and several grinds of pepper. NOTE: I used a different ratio of mayonnaise/lime juice more 1:1 .I did NOT double the garlic and scallions when I doubled the recipe and it was JUST right
