In Sweden this traditional salad is served in most pizza restaurants, because of its popularity it got the name pizza salad. You can do this salad with only cabbage or with shallots, peppers and carrots. Everyone includes either one of them or neither, it is really up to your taste.
I love this salad and it is so easy to make, on top of it, you can eat it the day after as well.
Yield: 4 servings
Total Time: 15 minutes
½ cabbage
½ shallot
1 red pepper
1 carrot
Dressing:
½ cup olive oil
¼ cup vinegar
¼ cup water
1 tsp salt
1 tsp black pepper
Shred the cabbage. I use a Swedish cheese slicer to do that, but you can use a knife too. Then slice the shallot, red pepper, and shred the carrot and put it all into a bowl. The dressing is prepared hot. Put all the olive oil, vinegar, water, salt and pepper into a pot and head up to boil once it start boiling turn it off and pour over your salad and mix well. I suggest you put the salad into the refrigerator for a few hours to cool down and marinate, but you could eat it right away.
