Rainbow ‘Slaw

I’m rather keen on colourful food – there’s nothing less appealing than a plate of brown! In my eyes even a little green garnish can lift the whole plate. This coleslaw is as colourful and pretty as a side-dish can be. An excellent way to add colour to a less exciting platter.

This colourful crunchy slaw is made with a big mustardy dressing rather than mayo – perfect for a lighter, healthier crunchy side.
