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 – once again both exceeded our expectations. My husband keeps saying it’s better ordering this than going out to restaurants as the recipes and food quality are amazing.

The whole Be Inspired experience has helped me love cooking again. I was sick of cooking the same old things - meal time is a lot brighter thanks to you Roberta.

I loved the Fresh & Easy Chicken – simple instructions, only a few ingredients and the time factor absolutely spot on. Then came the highlight, the taste, no compromise on the enjoyment of that meal! For the time poor Fresh & Easy hits the mark indeed.

Thank you for stocking our pantry with such authentic Ingredients and quality produce ... I’ve so enjoyed picking fresh leaves from the herb pots and loved listening to the chef's playlist while cooking. 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.

I am absolutely loving these boxes! 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.

Thanks so much for the Fresh & Easy Meal, it was excellent. We regularly get another meal kit delivery – your offering is vastly superior and a similar price, so big ticks.

I'm a competent cook whose learned so much from the Recipes+Videos Packs. 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.
