With a generous sprinkle of Cabbage Karma, the flavour gains depth and a gentle warmth that lifts the cabbage and ties it all together. It’s fresh yet comforting, simple yet layered – the kind of salad that quietly steals the spotlight on the table.
For the slaw:
½ savoy cabbage
1 crisp, tart apple (such as Granny Smith)
1 small carrot
A little finely chopped parsley (optional)
For the dressing:
200 ml crème fraîche (9–18% fat)
2–3 tbsp mayonnaise
1–1½ tbsp apple cider vinegar or lemon juice
1 tsp honey
1 tsp Dijon mustard
1–1½ tsp Cabbage Karma
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Finely shred the savoy cabbage and place it in a large bowl. Coarsely grate the apple and carrot, then add them to the cabbage along with the parsley, if using.
In a separate bowl, mix together all the dressing ingredients until smooth and creamy. Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture and toss thoroughly so everything is evenly coated.
Taste and adjust with a little extra acidity, sweetness or seasoning if needed.
Refrigerate for 20–30 minutes before serving to allow the flavours to come together.
Enjoy!
