I LOVE
coleslaw and I always have done! My mum loves it so it was always in
the fridge and a necessity when it came to eating Cheese Toasties/
Grilled Cheese when we were growing up! Whenever my friends came to
our house for lunch the one thing always requested was a Cheese
Toastie (Mum had a great toastie maker!) with coleslaw! Generally
though coleslaw was not something I made myself....back home in the
UK it was just as easy (and delicious!) to buy it from the
supermarket. When I moved to Canada however I discovered that the
coleslaw from the supermarket was something completely different and
I wasn't a big fan so it didn't take me long to start making my own
when I needed a coleslaw hit!
This
is by far the simplest recipe you will find for coleslaw but it is
amazing how many times I'm asked to bring it to a potluck party and
for the recipe! People are even more astonished when I tell them how
easy it is to make and what's in it. For best results I like to make
it an hour or 2 before serving as it allows the flavour of the onion
to really come through and mingle with everything, which in my
opinion is what makes this coleslaw taste so good. Try it and you'll
see!
