Super-Slaw recipe!

Super-Slaw recipe

We do on occasions buy Coleslaw but Sue more often that not makes her own. Provided you have Onions and Mayonnaise the other ingredients are arbitrary really. We’ve had Broccoli stems, Swede, you name it really - in various Coleslaws. This version was very colourful and notably tasty due to a (Not to long to be) Secret ingredient….

Ingredients:-

Carrots, finely batoned
Onions, finely sliced
Red Cabbage, finely sliced
Mayonnaise
Black Lime, crushed
Lemon juice

The Black Lime and Lemon juice added a really good citrus kick. You can get Black Limes from various Continental shops, they are really inexpensive, last for ever it seems and are handy to add a citrus flavour to all sorts of dishes.
