For the Slaw:
- 2 cups shredded green cabbage
- 1 teaspoon salt or to taste
- 1 apple diced
- Juice of one lemon
- 1 cup cucumber diced
- 1/2 cup carrot julienned
- 1/4 cup chopped spring onion whites
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh coriander leaves
For the Dressing:
- 1/4 cup curd or plain yogurt
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 jalapeño finely chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin powder jeera

Prepare the Cabbage: Place the shredded cabbage in a large bowl. Let it sit for about 10 minutes to help soften the cabbage slightly and enhance its flavor.
Add the Fresh Ingredients: After the cabbage has softened, add the diced apple, lemon juice, cucumber, carrot juliennes, spring onion whites, and chopped coriander leaves. Toss gently to combine.
Make the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the curd (or yogurt), mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, chopped jalapeño, cumin powder, and black pepper powder until well combined. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
Combine and Serve: Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture and toss until all ingredients are well coated. For best results, let the slaw sit in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve and Enjoy: Serve the slaw chilled as a side dish, or use it as a topping for tacos, burgers, or sandwiches. Enjoy the refreshing crunch with every bite!
