Ingredients

• 1 medium head Green cabbage
• 2 large Carrots
• 2 tablespoons Fresh dill
• 3 tablespoons White vinegar
• 2 tablespoons Sunflower oil
• 1 teaspoon Sugar
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Begin by removing the outer leaves of the cabbage. Cut the cabbage in half and remove the core. Thinly slice the cabbage into shreds using a sharp knife or mandoline.

Step 2

Peel the carrots and grate them using a box grater or food processor with a grating attachment.

Step 3

Finely chop the fresh dill and set it aside.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded cabbage, grated carrots, and chopped dill.

Step 5

In a small bowl, prepare the dressing by whisking together the white vinegar, sunflower oil, sugar, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Step 6

Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture and toss thoroughly to coat the vegetables evenly.

Step 7

Allow the coleslaw to sit for 10–15 minutes at room temperature to let the flavors meld together.

Step 8

Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Add a little more vinegar for tang, or sugar for sweetness, as desired.

Step 9

Serve immediately as a fresh side dish, or refrigerate for up to 24 hours for an even deeper flavor.
