Recipe Notes
- Coleslaw is best eaten chilled. So make sure to refrigerate for a couple of hours or even overnight.
- You can add apples, walnuts, dried cranberries, chopped dates, raisins etc. too.
- If kept overnight, the veggies and onions may release moisture and the coleslaw will become runny although still tasty.
- Adjust the amount of seasonings according to personal preference.
- Enjoy and Happy Eating!
