Ingredients

Slaw

  • Green cabbage shredded
  • Red/purple cabbage shredded
  • Shredded carrots
  • Red onion thinly sliced
  • Green onion or chives
  • Mint fresh
  • Cilantro fresh

Sauce / Dressing

  • Mayo, Greek yogurt or sour cream or a mix of all three

Instructions

Prep the slaw

  • Thinly shred the green and purple cabbage into a large bowl.
  • Add the shredded carrots, red onion, green onion or chives, mint and cilantro. Toss to combine.

Make the dressing

  • In a separate bowl, whisk your base - mayo, Greek yogurt, sour cream, or any mix of the three.
  • Whisk in the mango powder, sweet yellow curry powder, cumin, and a tiny bit of sumac and lemon pepper.
  • Add the monk fruit sweetener a little at a time - this is the key. Keep tasting until it balances the spice.
  • Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Bring it together

  • Pour the dressing over the slaw and toss until everything is evenly coated.
  • Chill at least 30 minutes so the flavors meld, then taste and adjust the sweetener and salt before serving.

Notes

Measure with your heart ♡ — there are no exact amounts here, adjust everything to taste.
The monk fruit sweetener is the key: add it slowly and keep tasting until it balances the curry and sumac.
