Description
A refreshing and healthy cabbage salad with lemon and parsley.
Ingredients
Scale
- 350 g red cabbage (we used half of a medium head)
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice (1 large lemon)
- 10 g parsley (a handful or more)
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
- Thinly slice the cabbage using a sharp knife and transfer it to a large bowl.
- Sprinkle the salt and squeeze the lemon juice over it.
- Massage thoroughly for about a minute, squeezing the slices with your fingers to soften the cabbage. Taste and add more salt if needed.
- Chop the parsley and add it to the bowl.
- Drizzle the olive oil over it and toss well.
- Serve immediately, or let it rest for about 30 minutes so it softens even more and the flavors blend better.
Notes
- For best results, use a sharp knife to slice the cabbage.
- Adjust the seasoning according to your taste.
- Letting the salad rest enhances the flavors.
