Cabbage salad

Method

  1.  Put sliced cabbage into a bowl and salt
  2. Add lemon OR  apple cider vinegar
  3. Coat with EVGE olive oil
  4. Top with shredded carrot

This is the most common cabbage salad found in Greece.

There is a variation found in the Peloponnese called "mapa" that has garlic and uses vinegar instead of lemon.

Dressing: 1 part lemon OR vinegar to 3 parts EVGE. I have a jar with a mark at 1/3 cup and 1 cup and always have some on hand to dress every type of salad and steamed vegetable (except Greek salad, which only needs EVGE!)

You can use any type of cabbage--even the ready to use kind that are available in grocery stores. Red cabbage is a delicious and healthy addition as well as sliced fresh green onions and even an avacado if on hand!

 ENJOY!!!
