Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 medium head green cabbage
- 0.5 small head red cabbage
- 1 large carrot
- 4 stalks green onions
- 0.25 cup fresh parsley
- 0.5 cup almond slices
- 0.25 cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Thinly slice the green and red cabbage into fine shreds using a sharp knife or a mandolin slicer. Transfer the shredded cabbage to a large mixing bowl.
Peel and grate the carrot with a box grater or use a julienne peeler. Add the grated carrot to the cabbage in the bowl.
Slice the green onions thinly, both the white and green parts. Add these to the bowl with the carrots and cabbage.
Chop the fresh parsley finely and add it to the mixing bowl.
Toast the almond slices in a dry skillet over medium heat, stirring frequently, until they are golden brown. This should take about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and let them cool, then add to the salad.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, sea salt, and black pepper to make the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture. Toss everything together very well to ensure that the vegetables are fully coated with the dressing.
Let the salad sit for about 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Serve chilled or at room temperature for the best flavor.
