Baby cabbage slaw with dates tossed in a garlic-and-malt mayo

By Abigail Donnelly
4
Easy
30 minutes

Ingredients

  • 2 baby cabbages, very thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup pitted and shredded dates
  • 8 baby carrots, peeled and shaved dried red chilli, for scattering
  • For the mayonnaise:

  • 1 free-range egg
  • 2 t Dijon mustard
  • 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
  • Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/2 cup canola oil
  • 1 T malt vinegar

Method

Toss together the cabbage, date and shaved carrot. Coat lightly in the mayonnaise, then arrange on a platter, sprinkle over the dried chilli and serve.

To make the mayonnaise:
Add the egg, lemon juice, mustard, garlic and seasoning, to taste, to a blender and blend until combined. While the motor is still running, slowly pour the oil, in a thin, steady stream, into the one of the oranges and juice them all.

TASTE’s take:
The sweet dates are a tasty substitute for more traditional raisins.
