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.
There was a one day special on Pork at the local supermarket yesterday. Suffice it to say Pork will be our meat of choice for the next few days! These leg steaks cost us the extortionate price of £0.94 so Sue reinvented our take on Pork Parmo.
Served with hand cut chips, Peas and homemade Coleslaw, this was a really tasty and quick meal. We used some remaining braising stock from the Lamb Neck we had in the fridge. Which was very rich and tasty.
