Ingredients
Slaw
- 4 cups cabbage shredded
- 1 1/2 cups carrot shredded
- 1/2 cup cilantro chopped
- 1/3 cup onion diced
- 1 1/2 cups apple shredded, or use peaches
Coleslaw Dressing
- 1 cup sour cream
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 1/4 teaspoon salt each, and add in garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper each, and add in garlic powder
- 1/4 cup cilantro
- 2 tablespoons sugar
Notes
- If you don’t like sour cream, you can switch it with mashed avocado or mayonnaise.
- For a healthy version, you can use Greek yogurt instead of sour cream. Mashed avocados will also do.
- If you want the fish taco slaw to turn out even more flavorful, leave it in the fridge for 30 minutes so that all the ingredients can blend together.
- To make it spicy, toss some peppers or jalapenos into the slaw. You can also sprinkle chili powder or cayenne pepper while serving.
- The type of cabbage makes a difference when it comes to the crunch and texture. Using a white cabbage results in a hearty crunch, while a Napa cabbage results in a less crunchy slaw. Purple cabbage can be used too.
- Leftovers of the slaw stores well for 5 days.
- The white sauce on fish tacos is made using sour cream, lime juice, sugar, and cilantro.
- Yes, you can make slaw up to 2 days ahead of time and store it in an airtight container. If you keep it for more than 2 days, it might turn watery, and the vegetables may lose their crispiness. The ideal time is to make it 3 to 6 hours ahead of time to enjoy the fresh and crisp vegetables.
- Yes! If cilantro isn't the herb for you, then feel free to use parsley instead.
- The sugar adds a touch of sweetness, and you can omit it that completely. The slaw will have a more tart and tangy taste from the lime juice and seasoning. You can take advantage of the fruit here and use a really sweet peach with the slaw to add the touch of sweetness.
