A recipe inspired by the classic American coleslaw, but with a dressing different from the usual mayonnaise. I made it yesterday and it turned out delicious, so I'm sharing it.

My lazy adaptation of red cabbage with apple.

A sweet twist on kraut.

Quick, easy and tasty! You can add more Mayo if u prefer, I don't like a lot however.

Once you make this from scratch, there’s no comparison to store-bought. Ideal with most German meals, consider this too with pot roast, pork chops, various sausages, and fowl (duck, turkey, etc.). Great with a variety of potatoes or egg noodles (German Spaetzle!)

For vegans: simply use soya-yoghourt.

red can nags slaw

Pickled red cabbage made with a sweetened spiced vinegar great with stews instead of pickled beetroot.

A nice salad similar to German Potato salad. This salad is about different textures and intense flavor. If adding apples mix in a couple of different ones. Like a Granny Smith apple and one that is sweet. Raisins black and golden. Carrots of the rainbow variety. So many different ways this salad has been eaten over the years. Nuts added including shredded coconut, changes the tempo of the ways it's eaten. I have even put chopped bratwurst or smoked sausage in it instead of bacon. I have always associated, red cabbage with sweet and sour flavors. Even served it with potatoes in it.If you like a sharper tartness about it add apple cider vinegar, or distilled vinegar. The cane vinegar is about as sharp as my youngest granddaughters prefer. Usually I use apple cider vinegar. This one I made for them. They do love the crunchiness of the food they eat.

This recipe was inspired by Skunkmonkey101’s Warm Red Cabbage Salad. I modified it a little and added a sweet onion. Very tasty side.

Nice
