Broccoli Stem and Carrot Slaw image

Provided by Anne Burrell

Time 1h40m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 broccoli stems (save the tops for something else), peeled and julienned on a mandolin
4 carrots, peeled and julienned on a mandolin
3 celery ribs, julienned
1 red onion, julienned
1 Granny Smith apple, skin on, julienned
1/2 cup julienned cornichons
1 1/2 cups mayonnaise

1 clove garlic, smashed and finely chopped
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • Combine all the ingredients. Season with salt to make sure it is delicious. Let sit for at least 1 hour before serving.

Tips:

  • Choose the right carrots: For the best flavor and texture, choose fresh, crisp carrots. Avoid carrots that are limp or have blemishes.
  • Shred the carrots thinly: This will help the slaw absorb the dressing and make it easier to eat.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: In addition to carrots, you can add other vegetables to your slaw, such as cabbage, broccoli, or bell peppers. This will make the slaw more colorful and nutritious.
  • Make your own dressing: Store-bought dressings can be high in sugar and unhealthy fats. It's easy to make your own dressing using simple, healthy ingredients like olive oil, vinegar, and honey.
  • Let the slaw chill: After you've made the slaw, let it chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. This will allow the flavors to meld and the slaw to become more crisp.

Conclusion:

Carrot slaw is a delicious, healthy, and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as a side dish, a main course, or a snack. With its sweet and tangy flavor, carrot slaw is a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy recipe, give carrot slaw a try.
