Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 medium-sized head Green cabbage
- 2 large Carrot
- 1 medium White onion
- 1 cup Mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Celery seed
Instructions
Remove any tough outer leaves from the cabbage. Core the cabbage and finely shred it using a sharp knife, a mandoline slicer, or the shredding attachment on a food processor. Place the shredded cabbage in a large mixing bowl.
Peel the carrots and use a box grater or a food processor to shred them. Add the shredded carrots to the bowl with the cabbage.
Peel and finely dice the white onion. Add it to the bowl with the cabbage and carrots.
In a smaller bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, granulated sugar, salt, black pepper, and celery seed until the dressing is smooth and well combined.
Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture and toss thoroughly to ensure all the vegetables are evenly coated.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
Before serving, give the coleslaw a final toss and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper if needed. Serve chilled as a side dish.
