Process in batches and mix in a bowl with the grated cabbages.

CONFETTI VEGGIE SLAW (RAINFOREST CAFE)



Confetti Veggie Slaw (Rainforest Cafe) image

We had the Napa Veggies at the Rainforest Cafe and knew we had to find a way to make something similiar at home. My kids now say that our recipe is better than the Rainforest Cafe's. There is a lot of room for personal taste with this recipe, add other veggies or take out those you don't like. Our favorite is the Jicima, we could never leave that one out! This recipe makes a ton, but it keeps well. It will still be nice & crispy 4 days later.

Time 30m

Yield 20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 (8 3/4 ounce) can corn, drained (we use white shoepeg)
1 green pepper, julienned
1 red pepper, julienned
1 yellow pepper, julienned
1 large jicama, julienned
2 cups carrots, julienned (about 4 carrots)
1/3 cup red onion, chopped
1/2 cup raisins (I use mix of white & regular)
1 cucumber, sliced
1 cup red cabbage, julienned (optional)
2/3 cup vinegar (I use seasoned white rice vinegar)
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1/4 teaspoon pepper (or to taste)
1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste)

Steps:

  • Combine all the veggies in a large bowl. I use my mandolin to cut everything since there is so much julienning to do. In a small bowl, mix vinegar, sugar, oil, salt & pepper. Pour over veggies. Cover & marinate in the refrigerator. We will eat it right away, but as it sits the veggies soak up the flavors.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your slaw.
  • Shred the vegetables thinly. This will help them to absorb the dressing and flavors more easily.
  • Don't overdress the slaw. You want the vegetables to be coated in the dressing, but you don't want them to be soggy.
  • Let the slaw chill for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld together.
  • Serve the slaw as a side dish or as a topping for fish, chicken, or tofu.

Conclusion:

Coconut vegetable slaw is a refreshing, healthy, and delicious side dish that is perfect for summer gatherings. With its bright flavors and crunchy texture, this slaw is sure to be a hit with everyone at your table. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy side dish, give this coconut vegetable slaw a try. You won't be disappointed!
