Ingredients

• 1 medium head Green cabbage
• 2 large Carrots
• 1 small Red onion
• 2 tablespoons Fresh dill
• 3 tablespoons White vinegar
• 2 tablespoons Sugar
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 cup Sour cream
• 0.5 cup Mayonnaise

Directions

Step 1

Remove the outer leaves of the green cabbage and cut it in half. Using a knife or mandoline, finely shred the cabbage and place it in a large mixing bowl.

Step 2

Peel and grate the carrots using a coarse grater. Add the grated carrots to the bowl with the cabbage.

Step 3

Thinly slice the red onion into very fine half-moons and add to the bowl.

Step 4

Finely chop the fresh dill and sprinkle it over the veggies in the bowl.

Step 5

In a small bowl, whisk together the white vinegar, sugar, salt, and black pepper until the sugar dissolves.

Step 6

Add the sour cream and mayonnaise to the vinegar mixture. Stir until the dressing is smooth and well combined.

Step 7

Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture in the large bowl. Toss everything together thoroughly to ensure the vegetables are evenly coated in the dressing.

Step 8

Cover the coleslaw and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together.

Step 9

Before serving, give the coleslaw a quick toss and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper, if needed.

Step 10

Serve chilled as a refreshing side dish or accompaniment.
