How to make easy coleslaw
To make this quick and easy coleslaw recipe, start by preparing the vegetables. Thinly slice both white and red cabbage and place them in a large mixing bowl. Next, grate the carrots and finely chop the spring onions, adding them to the bowl as well. Handy tip – use a mandoline slicer to cut the vegetables to reduce the preparation time.
In a separate small bowl, combine the mayonnaise and wholegrain mustard, stirring until well blended. Pour the creamy dressing over the cabbage mixture and toss everything together until all the vegetables are evenly coated.
Finally, sprinkle in the chopped almonds for an added crunch and gently mix them into the coleslaw. Allow the flavors to meld together for a few minutes, or refrigerate for a short while if desired.
