Ingredients

• 1 medium head Green cabbage
• 1 small Red onion
• 1 large Carrot
• 0.25 cup Fresh dill
• 0.25 cup Olive oil
• 3 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons Red wine vinegar
• 2 cloves Garlic cloves
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 cup Crumbled feta cheese (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Core and finely shred the green cabbage into thin strips using a sharp knife or a mandoline slicer. Place the shredded cabbage into a large mixing bowl.

Step 2

Peel and finely slice the red onion into thin half-moon shapes. Add the onion slices to the bowl with the cabbage.

Step 3

Peel and grate the carrot using a box grater or a food processor. Add it to the bowl with the cabbage and onion.

Step 4

Finely chop the fresh dill and sprinkle it over the vegetables in the bowl.

Step 5

In a small bowl or jar, combine the olive oil, fresh lemon juice, red wine vinegar, minced garlic cloves, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Whisk or shake well until the dressing emulsifies.

Step 6

Pour the dressing over the vegetables in the mixing bowl. Use clean hands or salad tongs to gently toss everything together until the vegetables are evenly coated with the dressing.

Step 7

Taste the salad and adjust the seasoning with additional salt, pepper, or lemon juice, if desired.

Step 8

If using, sprinkle crumbled feta cheese over the top of the salad just before serving for an extra layer of flavor.

Step 9

Serve the salad immediately, or let it chill in the refrigerator for 15–30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Enjoy!
