Time 45m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

Ingredients

1 medium apple, julienned thinly, tossed in
1 tablespoon lemon juice
3 cups julienned kale leaves, stems discarded (red Russian or tuscan kale is great)
1 1/2 cups grated carrots
1 cup thinly sliced and julienned fennel bulb
1/4 cup craisins
1/4 cup almonds, sliced
2/3 cup almonds, ground (ground almond flour, found in the bulk section of grocery stores)
2 1/2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons maple syrup
2/3 cup water
1 small garlic clove
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon curry powder
1/8 teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

I start by making the dressing first in a high speed blender until smooth, then mixing it throughly with the kale to help soften it. The dressing includes the almond flour, vinegar, maple syrup, water, garlic, mustard, salt, pepper and curry powder.
After the kale has been mixed with the dressing, toss the remaining ingredients with the kale. It is better if it sits a while before eating so the flavors can blend, but it is not essential. If you cannot find ground almond flour, you can use raw whole almonds but it will take more powerful blending to make it into a smooth and creamy dressing.

Tips:

To save time, use a pre-made coleslaw mix.
If you want a spicier slaw, add more curry powder or cayenne pepper.
For a sweeter slaw, add some honey or pineapple juice.
To make the slaw ahead of time, prepare it up to 24 hours in advance and store it in the refrigerator.
Serve the slaw as a side dish, on top of grilled chicken or fish, or in tacos or wraps.

Conclusion:

Curried slaw is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed in many different ways. It's a great way to add some flavor and crunch to your meals. Whether you're looking for a quick and easy side dish or a unique and flavorful addition to your next barbecue, curried slaw is a great option.
