INTRODUCTION

I hoped my coleslaw does appeal to you.. If it is not appealing, I knew my mistake because I have shredded too fine and by the time of taking picture, it shrunk and hence looked like very tiny pieces. There is nothing wrong with the recipe and the family loves the taste of the salad .

My boy liked coleslaw and I presumed most will be able to guess that he got to know coleslaw from the Kentucky Fried Chicken. In fact, most of us in Asian countries only know coleslaw from this fast food outlet. It is not that common as compared with other western salad and apparently, pardon me if I  am wrong, only Kentucky Fried Chicken sold this salad..

Every time when we dined in Kentucky Fried Chicken, he will definitely order this and at times want to have an extra serving of this cabbage salad. I promised him that I will try to prepare it at home. I searched for the recipe in the internet and I finally select one and tried out. Yes, the taste is very close and I do not think there is anything to complain for home consumption.. The recipe is simple and the only challenge is how small should the shredded cabbage be! In my next attempt, I will definitely used shredders that have bigger holes such that at time when the salad is served, it will not shrink too much.. Is it not experience counts?

“Coleslaw (also known as Cole slaw) is a salad consisting primarily of finely-shredded raw cabbage^[1] and dressed most commonly with a vinaigrette salad dressing. Prepared in this manner, coleslaw can be pickled for up to four weeks if it is stored in an airtight container.^[2] Another way to make coleslaw is to use foods that already contain vinaigrette: mayonnaise, for example, is commonly used. “ (Source””: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coleslaw)
