Ingredients
- 4 cups Green cabbage
- 1 large Carrot
- 0.5 cups Mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
- 1.5 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Finely shred the green cabbage using a sharp knife, mandoline, or food processor until you have approximately 4 cups of shredded cabbage. Transfer to a large mixing bowl.
Step 2
Peel and grate the carrot using a box grater or the grating attachment on a food processor. Add the grated carrot to the bowl with the cabbage.
Step 3
In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, sugar, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper until smooth.
Step 4
Pour the dressing over the cabbage and carrot mixture. Toss everything together until the vegetables are evenly coated in the dressing.
Step 5
Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt, pepper, or sugar if desired.
Step 6
Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. This step is optional but recommended for best results.
Step 7
Before serving, give the cole slaw a quick toss to redistribute the dressing. Serve chilled as a side dish or a topping for sandwiches and burgers.
