Ingredients

  • 450 grams cabbage
  • 50 grams kale
  • 100 grams carrot (about ½ carrot, shredded)
  • 1 lemon (zest + 2 tablespoons juice)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon fennel pollen
  • ground black pepper (to taste)

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Remove any tough, or discolored outer leaves from the cabbage and discard. 
  2. Peel off the cabbage leaves from the head, trimming out the tough center stems as you go. Stack the cabbage leaves and cut them into thin ribbons.
  3. Remove the center rib from the kale, stack and cut the kale into thin ribbons.
  4. Add the cabbage, kale, and carrots to a bowl and toss with about 1 teaspoon of salt. Transfer to a wire mesh strainer and let this drain for about 10 minutes.
  5. In a separate bowl, zest half the lemon using a Microplane and then juice the lemon (you want about 2 tablespoons of lemon juice) into the bowl with the zest. Add the olive oil, ¼ teaspoon of salt, fennel pollen, and black pepper to the dressing and whisk to combine.
  6. Give the cabbage mixture a light squeeze and add it to the bowl with the dressing. Toss to coat evenly.
