Making coleslaw is a bit of a family tradition, my nan makes it for family parties along with homemade sausage rolls. My mum used to make it occasionallly, both recipes involved quite a bit of mayonnaise, tomato puree and ketchup, which I always thought was quite odd but it always tasted good. I’d like to think this is my updated version, with a little less fat and absolutely no ketchup, I hate the stuff.
Ingredients
A White cabbage
5 Carrots
1 Red onion
1 Leek
4 pots of low fat yoghurt
3 Tbsp Mayonnaise
1 tsp Dijon Mustard
Lemon Juice
1. Shred all veg in a food processor.
2. Add yoghurt, mayonnaise, mustard and three large squeezes of lemon juice. Season to taste.
I love coleslaw. Love love love it. Mmmmmm!
Thanks for sharing the recipe.
Sounds like something I must try – my Mum used to add tons of Heinz Salad Cream to her coleslaw, my cheeks still suck in a bit thinking about it!
Wow, love the idea of putting leeks into coleslaw. Will definitely be trying this! x
I wanted to add some red cabbage too but couldn’t get hold of any.
Mmmmm, I want a jacket potato now.
