Cabbage and Apple Slaw

Slaw may be associated with summer barbecue and burgers, but this wintry version is a welcome addition to the holiday table. Crisp apples bring in seasonal flavours, and tangy vinegar gives a moderate bite to the red-cabbage base.

½ cup mayonnaise
2 Tbsp. apple cider vinegar
1 small red cabbage (1½ lbs), cored, quartered, and finely shredded
2 medium Granny Smith apples, peeled and grated
coarse sea salt
pepper, freshly cracked

In a large bowl, mix together mayonnaise and vinegar.

Add cabbage and apples; season with coarse salt and ground pepper, and toss to coat.

Refrigerate, covered, until ready to serve.

Makes 8 servings.
