Coleslaw

Mum is famous in our family for her Coleslaw, she is always called upon to make it for any family BBQ or gathering. The ingredients are very basic but I think it is her proportions and the fact that it is more about look and taste for her than exact quantities.

The absolute must for her is Praise Coleslaw Dressing and always the full fat version as the low fat variety doesn’t coat the vegetables as well. Depending on the quantity to be made we prefer to cut by hand and only use a food processor if we are making a large quantity.

Coleslaw is a great all year round salad no matter the weather, we always serve it as a topping on our whole baked potatoes, its great in sliders, to serve with ribs and of course perfect with barbeques.

    I too make this salad all the time but I like to add a few other ingredients; red cabbage and red onion rather than white make it a bit more colourful.

      It does look nice made with the red cabbage, also some capsicum is nice in it.
