Creamy Coconut Coleslaw Recipe
Description
Creamy Coconut Coleslaw Recipe uses a combination of medium-thin sliced green cabbage and very thin purple cabbage for color contrast and texture variety. The dressing is prepared by whisking real mayonnaise with unsweetened coconut milk, horseradish cream sauce, granulated sugar, and apple cider vinegar or lemon juice. The vinegar provides a bright acidity that balances the creamy and slightly sweet elements.
The horseradish sauce adds a mild spicy kick that complements the freshness of the cabbage. When the dressing is smooth and creamy, it is poured over the cabbage mixture and stirred to evenly coat the vegetable strands. Just before serving, stir again to redistribute dressing that may settle.
This coleslaw works well as a side dish for grilled or fried foods, offering a creamy yet slightly tangy alternative to traditional mayonnaise-based coleslaw. The coconut milk adds a unique twist to the dressing, providing a light coconut flavor without overwhelming the overall taste.
Ingredients
- 1/2 green cabbage thinly sliced, medium
- 1/4 cabbage very thinly sliced, small, purple
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise real
- 1/4 cup coconut milk Original, unsweetened
- 2 tsp granulated sugar
- 2 tsp apple cider vinegar or lemon juice, both work great!
- 1 tsp Horseradish cream sauce
Instructions
- In a small bowl or measuring cup, whisk together 1/2 cup mayo, 1/4 cup coconut milk, 1 tsp horseradish sauce, 2 tsp sugar, 2 tsp apple cider vinegar (
- or lemon juice - honestly I tested both and liked them. My husband liked the vinegar slightly more so I went with that one for this batch).
- In a medium bowl, combine thinly sliced green cabbage with very thinly sliced purple cabbage. I like the contrast of larger green cabbage pieces with thinner purple mixed in.
- Once the dressing is creamy and smooth, pour it over your prepared cabbage and stir well. Just before serving, give it a quick stir to make sure any dressing at the bottom coats the cabbage. So yummy!
