Red cabbage and coriander salad

This is my mum’s recipe and I make it all the time – it is so easy and incredibly tasty, always a winner!

Ingredients:

  • ½ red cabbage, finely shredded

  • 2 large carrots, peeled and grated

  • 1-2 apples, skin on, grated

  • ½ cup raisins

  • 3 tbsp lite mayonnaise

  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar

  • 3 tsp ground coriander

  • Handful of fresh chopped coriander

How to make:

  1. Put mayonnaise and apple cider vinegar into a jar and shake well to mix.

  2. Combine dressing with the other ingredients, mix well and all done! 

Serve it up:

  • To make this a nutritionally balanced meal, add some protein.  This is fabulous served with fish, chicken or any grilled meat.

  • If you plan to take the salad for lunch, have it with a boiled egg, or canned tuna, salmon, sardines or some cold lean meat.

  • For vegetarians, add some chickpeas, butter beans or kidney beans and a few nuts.

 Adapt it:

  • Use currants or sultanas instead of raisins.

  • Instead of mayonnaise and apple cider vinegar you can use 3 tbsp of lite sour cream and a light squeeze of lemon juice.

  • Add a can of chickpeas if you want a more filling salad.
