Cilantro Coleslaw
I bought a bunch of cilantro to use in another recipe and did not want to waste it so I looked through my collection of cookbooks and found this one. I substituted a spicy brown mustard but I think the sweet hot mustard would be better if you happen to have it on hand.
Ingredients
1/2 head cabbage, thinly sliced
2 Tablespoons finely chopped fresh cilantro
2 Tablespoons finely chopped white onion
3/4 cup mayonnaise
2 Tablespoons milk or cream
juice of 2 limes
1/2 teaspoon celery seed
2 teaspoons sweet hot mustard
2/3 cup pine nuts (optional)Directions
Combine mayonnaise, milk, lime juice and seasonings in a large bowl, combine until smooth. Add the rest of the ingredients and toss thoroughly.
Note: Bottled lime juice can be substituted for the limes. Lemon juice would probably be ok also, but there will be a difference in the taste.
