Savoy Slaw Adapted
Ingredients
- 1/2 of a large head of Savoy or Napa cabbage , stems trimmed, leaves halved lengthwise then sliced thinly, crosswise
- 3 leaves kale , stems removed and sliced very thinly
- 1/2 onion , minced
- 2 medium carrots , grated
- 1 bulb fennel , finely diced
- 1 small tart apple , finely diced
- zest & juice from 2 small limes
- salt & freshly ground black pepper
- ¼ tsp ground cayenne pepper , or to taste
- olive oil
- 1 tsp honey (optional)
- 1 ½ cups raw peanuts , toasted
Instructions
-
Combine all vegetables and apple in a large bowl. Toss to mix. Add lime zest & juice, salt, pepper & cayenne. Toss well.
-
Drizzle olive oil, toss and taste & adjust until dressing is balanced. If slaw needs a touch of sweetness, drizzle in a tiny amount of honey, toss and taste.
-
Toss one last time and allow to rest at room temperature for about 15 minutes prior to serving, so cabbage will "relax" and wilt slightly.
-
Serve at room temperature, garnished with a healthy scoop of peanuts. Keep peanuts in a separate bowl for maximum crunch.
