Description
A crisp, sweet-tangy slaw with mango, cabbage, bell peppers, and lime dressing.
Ingredients
2 cups shredded purple cabbage
1 cup diced ripe mango
1/2 cup grated carrots
1/2 red bell pepper, julienned
1/4 cup chopped red onion
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
Juice of 2 limes
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp rice vinegar
1 tsp honey
1/2 tsp chili flakes
Salt to taste
Instructions
Prepare the vinaigrette by whisking lime juice, olive oil, vinegar, honey, chili flakes, and salt.
Combine cabbage, mango, carrots, and bell pepper in a large bowl.
Pour dressing over the slaw and toss gently.
Add red onion and cilantro, then chill for 15 minutes before serving.
Notes
Use red or green cabbage. Freeze shredded cabbage for 30 minutes for extra crunch.
Choose Tommy Atkins or Ataulfo mango for peak sweetness.
Replace carrots with daikon radish for a peppery variation.
Omit red bell pepper if avoiding nightshade vegetables.
Reduce red onion for a milder flavor.
