Equipment

  • Food processor
  • Box grater 

Ingredients
  

  • Finely shredded 1 medium green cabbage
  • Grated 1 large carrot
  • Thinly sliced 1 red onion
  • 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 6 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 6 tablespoons sunflower oil avoid olive oil for a milder flavor
  • 1 teaspoon celery seeds
  • 1 teaspoon mustard seeds
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Instructions
 

Step 1: Prepare Your Veggies

  • Start by finely shredding the green cabbage. Use a food processor if you like to save time. Next, grate the carrot using a box grater, and slice the red onion thinly. Place all the vegetables into a large mixing bowl.

Step 2: Make the Dressing

  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the apple cider vinegar, sugar, sunflower oil, celery seeds, and mustard seeds. Add salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Whisk until the sugar is fully dissolved and everything is well combined.

Step 3: Combine Everything

  • Pour the dressing over the shredded veggies. Toss everything thoroughly until the cabbage, carrot, and onions are well-coated with the dressing.

Step 4: Chill and Serve

  • Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together. Feel free to let it sit overnight if you want an even richer taste.

Notes

Here are some tips to ensure you get it right every time:
  • Use Fresh Ingredients: Fresh cabbage and carrots make all the difference.
  • Adjust Sweetness and Tanginess: Feel free to tweak the vinegar and sugar amounts to suit your taste preference.
  • Let It Sit: Allowing the coleslaw to chill for several hours enhances the flavors.
  • Serve Cold: This coleslaw tastes best when served cold.
  • Mix Well: Thoroughly mixing the coleslaw ensures even flavor distribution.
