Ingredients

Scale

For the Salad:

  • 1 medium head of white cabbage
  • ½ medium head of red/purple cabbage
  • 1 English cucumber or 4 small cucumbers
  • 1 bunch of green onions

For the Dressing:

  • 4 tablespoons sunflower oil
  • 1 ½ tablespoons vinegar (or to taste)
  • 1 ½ teaspoons salt (or to taste)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Vegetables: Wash all vegetables thoroughly. Using a mandoline or sharp knife, thinly shred the white and red cabbages. Place them in a large mixing bowl.
  2. Add the Cucumber and Green Onions: Peel and julienne the English cucumber (or slice small cucumbers into thin strips). Finely dice the green onions. Add both to the bowl with the shredded cabbage.
  3. Make the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the sunflower oil, vinegar, and salt using a fork until well combined.
  4. Toss the Salad: Drizzle the dressing over the vegetables. Toss the salad thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are evenly coated. Adjust the seasoning to taste, as the amount needed may vary depending on the size of the cabbages.
  5. Serve: Let the salad sit for a few minutes to allow the flavors to meld before serving.
