About

Savoy cabbage isn’t usually used in a slaw, but in the dark winter months I crave the chlorophyl hit of the green. It becomes tender when marinated in the tangy dressing here.

500 g savoy or sweetheart (hispi) cabbage

Method

Chop the cabbage and fennel into shreds and finely chop the red onion. Core and finely slice the apple.

Make the dressing by whisking the lime juice and zest, vinegar, oil, caraway seeds and salt together in a large bowl. Add the sliced ingredients and mix well. Garnish with the fennel fronds and serve.
