Ingredients:
- Apples - 7 oz (200 g)
- Lemon Juice - 4 tbsp
- Cabbage - 2.2 lb (1 kg)
- White Onion - 3 oz (90 g)
- Carrot - 5 oz (150 g)
- Mayonnaise - 6 tbsp
- Sugar - 1 tbsp
- Salt - 1 tsp
Instructions:
1. Start by thoroughly washing your produce. Peel the apples and carrots, then grate them into a large mixing bowl.
2. Add the freshly squeezed lemon juice to the grated apples immediately to prevent them from browning and to add a zesty flavor to the slaw.
3. Fine shred the cabbage and add it to the mixing bowl with the apple and carrot mixture.
4. Finely chop the white onion and combine it with the rest of the vegetables in the bowl, making sure everything is properly mixed.
5. In a small separate bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sugar, and salt to create a smooth, creamy dressing.
6. Pour the dressing over the shredded fruits and vegetables, and toss everything together to ensure that the slaw is uniformly coated.
7. Allow the slaw to chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. This will let the flavors meld together and the vegetables to soak up the dressing, enhancing the overall taste.
8. Before serving, give the slaw one final mix and adjust seasoning if necessary. It can be served cold as a refreshing side dish.
