The best coleslaw

Step by Step

Step 1

Sprinkle the mixed seeds into a small frying pan and place over a medium heat. Cook, tossing often, for 3-4 minutes, until they smell nutty and toasted, then remove from the heat and allow to cool.

Step 2

Remove and discard the core from both cabbages, then slice as thinly as possible using a sharp knife or mandoline. Place the shredded cabbage into a large bowl. Use a peeler (or mandoline) to peel long strips from the carrots, then cut each slice into thin batons and add to the cabbage.

Step 3

For the dressing, grate the garlic into a small bowl, then add the yogurt, mayonnaise, vinegar and salt. Mix well to combine. Add the creamy dressing to the slaw, with the coriander stems and most of the leaves, plus ½ the toasted seeds. Mix thoroughly until completely coated, then sprinkle with the remaining coriander leaves and seeds and serve.
