If you are used to supermarket soggy cole slaw, you are in for a big surprise when you taste the real thing.

Ingredients

For salad:

1 small cabbage
4 green onions
bunch fresh parsley
bunch fresh dill
2 carrots, peeled and trimmed
2 dill pickles
1 apple, cored and peeled
1 red onion, peeled and halved
2 ribs celery
1 green pepper, halved and seeded
1 red pepper, halved and seeded

For dressing:

1 clove garlic, peeled
1 1/2 cups (350 mL) mayonnaise, preferably homemade
2 tablespoons(30 mL) dijon mustart
3 tablespoons (45 mL) red wine vinegar
dash Tabasco sauce
1/2 cup (115 mL) sour cream
salt and pepper to taste

Cut cabbage in half and cut out core. Cut each half in 4 wedges and then each wedge in half crosswise. Fit work bowl with metal blade. Place 2 to 5 pieces in the food processor work bowl at one time, depending on size of your machine. Chop cabbage coarsely with only 3 or 4 on/off pulses. Remove from food processor to a large bowl and repeat until all cabbage is chopped.

Cut green onions into 2 inch pieces and add to work bowl still fitted with metal blade. Add parsley and dill. Chop using 5 or 6 on/off pulses and add chopped herbs to cabbage.

Refit food processor work bowl with shredding disc. Cut carrots in half lengthwise and stand them up in the small feed tube. Process so that the carrots are grated but in short strands. Repeat with pickles and apples. Add to cabbage.

Refit food processor work bowl with slicing disc. Cut onion into quarters to fit small feed tube and slice. Pack celery ribs into feed tube and slice. Cut peppers into 2 inch cubes and pack into feed tube and slice. Add all to cabbage.

Refit with metal blade. Drop garlic through feed tube with machine running and process until chopped.

Add remaining ingredients and blend thoroughly. Taste and season with salt and pepper if necessary. Add dressing to vegetables and serve.
