SLC25-W5 // "Coleslaw Salad"

Greetings, love & respect to all of my steemian friends. Assalamu Alaikum

I am @saifuddinmahmud from Bangladesh. I am excited to join this learning challenge. The challenge name is Coleslaw Salad. The challenge organised by honorable @dasudi. I am going to join this challenge. I hope everyone will like my post.

In the 5th week of the Learning Challenge, we have come up with a tasty salad item. I am sharing this salad recipe with my Steemian friends.

The ingredients we need to make the salad are:

Cabbage 100 grams
Green apple 1 pcs
Mayonnaise 3 tablespoons
Mustard 1 tablespoon
Ground almonds 2 spoon
Raisins 1 spoon
Carrot 1 pcs
Lemon juice 1 tablespoon
Sugar 2 tablespoons
Salt to taste

I have prepared the necessary ingredients.

I chopped the cabbage into small pieces. Then I washed it. After washing, I soaked it in water for 10 minutes.

I washed the carrots, peeled the skin off, and then chopped them into small pieces.

I washed the green apple, peeled it, and then chopped it into small pieces.

The cabbage, carrots, and green apples are ready. Now I will make the dressing.

To make the dressing, I took 3 tablespoons of mayonnaise in a bowl. 1 tablespoon of mustard and added 1 tablespoon of lemon juice.

Now I will mix all the ingredients together well. I will mix it well until it is mixed.

After mixing well, I will add 2 teaspoons of sugar and salt as needed. Then I will stir well again.

My dressing is completely ready.

Now I will take a medium pot. In that pot, first I will add the chopped cabbage, then I will add the carrots, and then I will add the green apple.

I mixed them a little. Then I added 2 spoons of almonds and 1 spoon of raisins.

After adding all the ingredients, I made a paste. Then I added the dressing that I had prepared earlier.

After the salad was ready, I put the ingredients in the fridge for 15 minutes so that they would freeze well. Then I ate it. Oops, it was incredibly delicious.

After adding the dressing, I gently mixed it well. My salad is ready.

As per the rules of the challenge, I took a picture with my name, date, and other things written on it.

When preparing this salad, did you eat it as a side dish or as a main course? Explain your answer in detail.

In our country, cabbage is mostly eaten as a winter vegetable. It is mostly harvested in winter. That's why I couldn't collect purple cabbage.

I was very happy while making the salad. I really liked every ingredient of this salad. So after making the salad, it was so delicious that I didn't wait to mix it with anything else and eat it. My son and I started eating it with a fork. I added nuts and raisins as additional ingredients. When the almonds, green apples and raisins were falling on our teeth, we felt a nectarine taste of the salad. So I ate it as a main course.

Do you have any special tips for making this salad? Share them.

Yes i have some special tips:

• Collect fresh and crunchy vegetables and fruits.
• Prepare the recipe according to the rules shown in the challenge.
• Chop them finely so that you can enjoy the taste. Do not mix with too much pressure while mixing, as this will make the salad too soft and the water will come out.
• Keep it in the fridge for a while, it will be better to eat it a little cold.
• Of course, pay attention to the quantity because if the salt or sugar is too much or too little, the taste of the food will be ruined.
