Spicy Slaw

Spicy Coleslaw (Spicy Slaw)

This spicy coleslaw is a great way to liven up a simple poached chicken, steak or piece of grilled fish. It’s also delicious on a sandwich with a hard cheese (like cheddar) or a fried egg. I like chardonnay with the richness of mayonnaise, but prefer something more like a Chablis than the typical Aussie chardonnay, Scott Wines elegant Piccadilly Valley chardonnay from the Adelaide Hills is just the thing. See video below for a classic (less spicy) coleslaw.

Serves 4 as a side dish

Ingredients
  • ¼ Savoy cabbage, dark green outer leaves and thick central stem discarded
  • 8 green onions, finely sliced
  • 1 bunch flat-leaf parsley, leaves finely chopped
  • ¼ cup finely chopped dill
  • ¾ cup whole egg mayonnaise
  • 2½ tablespoons harissa
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • Salt flakes, to taste
Method
  1. Discard the dark green outer leaves and thick central stem of the cabbage and finely shred the remainder.
  2. Place in a large bowl with green onion, parsley and dill.
  3. Shake mayonnaise, harissa, lemon juice and salt together in a screw top jar.
  4. Pour mayonnaise mixture over the salad and toss well to combine.
  5. Serve or cover and refrigerate until needed.

We made the pot-sticker dumplings and bang bang chicken from the Chinese class the other night. Once again both exceeded our expectations. My husband keeps saying it’s better than going out to restaurants as the recipes and quality are amazing.

Your recipes are something I always feel confident offering guests and also reasonable in the time to prepare. We often try your recommended wines and suppliers and enjoy your travel tales too!

Thank you for stocking our pantry with such authentic Ingredients and quality produce. We really like the flexibility of cooking over a couple of days and changing the order we cook the dishes in when we want to. And I love listening to the themed playlist while cooking.

I am absolutely loving Be Inspired! There are ingredients I have never worked with before so having the confidence to try something new is so much fun! The recipes are just amazing and the notes on what can be prep’d beforehand are a great help too. Thank you so much.

Awesome fun traveling through Emilia-Romagna experiencing first hand some of the produce I've worked with over the last couple of years cooking with Roberta's classes – the family are reaping the benefits now.

Food, wine and travel! Three of my favourite things! Be Inspired with Roberta has been a wonderful experience and given me more confidence in the kitchen. I have learnt so much, cooked things I never would have attempted without Roberta’s excellent videos, and used ingredients I have never tried before.

I'm a competent cook whose learned so much from Roberta's online cooking classes. The recipes are yummy and Roberta’s video guidance offers so many little tips to improve flavour and organise the flow of preparation. I enjoy her warmth, sense of humour, and ability to giggle at herself when she occasionally messes up.
