Ingredients:

For the Coleslaw:

• 1 medium-sized green cabbage, finely chopped or shredded
• 2 large carrots, grated
• 1/2 cup (120ml) buttermilk
• 1/2 cup (120g) mayonnaise
• 1/4 cup (60g) granulated sugar
• 1/4 cup (60ml) whole milk
• 1/4 cup (60ml) apple cider vinegar
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Vegetables:
   • Finely chop or shred the green cabbage.
   • Grate the carrots.
2. Make the Coleslaw Dressing:
   • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, mayonnaise, sugar, milk, apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix until the sugar is fully dissolved.
3. Combine Vegetables and Dressing:
   • Add the chopped cabbage and grated carrots to the dressing in the bowl. Toss everything together until the vegetables are evenly coated with the dressing.
4. Chill the Coleslaw:
   • Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the coleslaw for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight. This allows the flavors to meld, and the coleslaw becomes more flavorful.
5. Serve:
   • Before serving, give the coleslaw a good stir to make sure the dressing is evenly distributed.
   • Serve the coleslaw chilled as a refreshing side dish.
6. Optional: Customize:
   • Feel free to customize the coleslaw by adding a pinch of celery seeds or a sprinkle of fresh herbs like parsley for extra flavor.
