> [@Tara57](#): > > The noodles are a tasty addition. Imagine crunchy chow mein noodles. That sounds, good, too, come to think of it. Carrots would be great. Just tried it. FANTASTIC. The carrots really gave the color, taste, and crunch I wanted. No problems with the noodles, they get soggy after a while. Next time I’ll toss the noodle-less salad and just before I serve I’ll sprinkle the noodles. ---

The local mexican restaurant makes a really good slaw. I wish I could get the recipe. ---

I used to make a version years ago, using an electric food thing that had slicing and grating blades, but you could equally use one of those manual slide things. Basically the cabbage, but add to that: Thinly sliced radish, granny smith apple, red capsicum grated carrot juice of one orange and a little orange zest just a touch of mayo for binding. Came up really well. ---

Coarsely grated red cabbage, coarsely grated carrots (about equal amounts), salt, pepper, balsamic vinegar. That is all. That is enough. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/im-looking-for-a-good-coleslaw-recipe/680507.md?page=1)
