Lahanosalata (Greek Cabbage Slaw / Salad)
- 1 head light green cabbage, about 1 . 5 lbs
- 2 cups grated carrots (grated on large holes of box grater)
- 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (or to taste)
- salt
- 1 very finely minced garlic clove (optional)
- feta cheese (optional)
- Core the cabbage and shred as for making traditional coleslaw.
- Put the cabbage and carrot in a large bowl.
- Toss well.
- In a small bowl mix the olive oil, lemon juice and garlic (if using).
- Add salt to taste.
- Just prior to serving, pour over the salad and toss to coat.
- Adjust seasonings and olive oil or lemon juice as needed.
- Note: This is really lovely served with a generous hunk of feta cheese - either crumbled in, or served alongside so you can nibble on pieces of creamy cheese between bites of crispy salad.
