Ingredients

  • 200 g Red Cabbage finely shredded
  • 1 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 1 tbsp Lemon Juice
  • 1 tbsp White Vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1 Pinch Sumac
  • 1 tbsp Fresh Parsley finely chopped

Instructions

  • Place the finely shredded Red Cabbage into a large mixing bowl and separate any clumps with your hands to ensure an even texture.
  • Pour in the Olive Oil, Lemon Juice, and Vinegar. Sprinkle over the Salt and Sumac, then add the Parsley.
  • Toss everything together thoroughly until the cabbage is evenly coated with the dressing and the seasonings are well distributed throughout.
  • Using your hands or a spoon, gently massage the cabbage for 1–2 minutes to help soften it slightly and allow the flavours to penetrate the leaves.
  • Cover the bowl and leave the cabbage to rest in the refrigerator for at least 60 minutes. This allows the cabbage to soften further and absorb the dressing.
  • Give the salad a final toss before serving. Serve chilled as a side to grilled meats, kebabs, wraps, rice dishes, or salads.
