Rainbow 'slaw

I have discovered home made coleslaws, and I love them. 

Just a sharp knife and 15 minutes required (and the healthy : delicious ratio is very favourable indeed...)





Made a huge mixing bowl full, generously serving two of us for lunches for the week with some cold chicken and a pitta bread. Keeps for 3-4 days in the fridge

1/4 medium red cabbage
2 sticks of celery
5 small carrots
1/2 mug sweetcorn
1 small onion
2 eating apples
3 tbsp cider vinegar
3 tbsp sunflower oil

Peel the onion and peel and core the apples, then chop very very finely.
Peel and grate the carrots.
Cook the corn for 5 minutes or so until just done. Leave to cool.
Chop the cabbage very finely (the finer the better, perhaps I should buy a mandolin...)
Mix everything together in a bowl and toss in the vinegar and sunflower oil

Crunch, munch and enjoy.
