Sick and tired of boring coleslaw? Me too. I just didn’t want to make a creamy coleslaw to have with our steak tonight.
\nAfter a little googling, I found an interesting Lebanese Cabbage Salad<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Not liking some of the ingredients I made a variation which is fresh and delicious. My taste tester found the salad a bit too tangy, so I add some agave syrup and this gave a delicious flavour. Honey would also be fine.
\nIf making it without the sweetener, I’d call it “Tangy Cabbage Salad”.<\/p>\n

Minted Cabbage Salad<\/b>
\n1\/2 green cabbage, thinly sliced (I used a mandolin)
\n <\/b>1 red apple, cored and quartered, thinly sliced from the short end of each quarter
\n1\/2 carrot, grated finely or sliced into very thin strips
\nthe leaves from 4 or 5 stalks of fresh mint, chopped<\/p>\n

Dressing<\/b>
\n3 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
\n3 Tbsp good quality olive oil – could probably reduce to 2 Tbsp<\/i>
\n1 Tbsp agave syrup or honey (optional)
\n1\/4 tsp fresh crushed garlic – I use the Woolies one in the plastic jar<\/i>
\nsprinkling white pepper<\/p>\n

Place dressing ingredients in a jar and shake to blend. Pour into a shallow dish. Add sliced apple. This prevents it from going brown.
\nMix all salad ingredients together – hands are the easiest utensils to use here. Add the apple and dressing and mix again.<\/p>\n

Enjoy!<\/i><\/div>\n
