Golden slaw: A nutritious and irresistible addition to dinner

Almost no dinner can be done without a vegetable addition. If you go for this recipe for golden slaw, you don't have to worry that no one will reach for it. It is so delicious that you can eat it straight from the bowl. And it will be suitable for everyone, because it is not only tasty but, above all, very healthy.

A delicious slaw is the key to dinner success. However, it doesn't take much to delight your household with an addition that provides them with solid vitamins and nutrients. Golden slaw with sauerkraut and carrots is an absolute classic that’s worth reaching for, not only when fried fish is for dinner. With simple additions, it turns into a snack that is hard to resist.

My grandmother used to make this slaw. I used to wonder why she made such a big bowl. It turns out it was just caution because the slaw is so delicious that half of it would disappear before dinner.

Slaw with sauerkraut is a great addition to a healthy diet. It is low in calories and full of dietary fibre, which stimulates the intestines and provides a feeling of fullness. It is also a source of vitamins (including A, E, K, and those from the B group) and minerals (including magnesium, potassium, iron, and calcium). Such an addition to dinner not only takes care of a youthful appearance and better well-being but also dramatically strengthens immunity and helps lose a few pounds.

Caraway seeds, when added to dishes, especially those that are hard to digest, have a beneficial effect on the digestive system. Added to cabbage, they reduce the risk of bloating. However, if you don't like their taste, you can safely skip this addition.

Ingredients:

• 500 grams sauerkraut,
• 250 grams carrots,
• 1-2 apples,
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice,
• 5 tablespoons canola oil,
• 1/2 teaspoon ground caraway seeds,
• a pinch of freshly ground pepper,
• salt and sugar to taste.

Preparation:

1. Thoroughly squeeze the sauerkraut to remove excess juice. If it is too sour, you can briefly rinse and squeeze it again.
2. Chop the cabbage into small pieces.
3. Peel the carrots and grate them on a fine grater.
4. Peel the apple, remove the seed core, and grate it on a coarse grater.
5. Drizzle the apple with lemon juice to prevent it from darkening.
6. Combine the chopped cabbage with the grated carrots and apple.
7. Season with caraway seeds, pepper, salt, and sugar to taste.
8. Drizzle with canola oil and mix thoroughly.

Set aside the prepared slaw for an hour to let the flavours blend. Enjoy!
