    Grown up coleslaw; love it! I like that there’s not a lot of mayo/dressing compared to the amount of veg overall. Different combo of veg and herbs makes it very different from other coleslaws.

    I agree with other posters - lovely recipe that is relatively simple. Light, clean flavours, not at all oily or claggy like coleslaw can sometimes be. We had it with pulled pork baps and it was the perfect accompaniment.

    Made this to go with our glazed ham on Christmas Eve. Delicious and easy and loved the corn addition. Might grate the carrot next time as my batons were too large. A definite repeat.

    Yeah, this was really, really good! I skipped the carrots and subbed basil for the mint. The corn is great here with the cabbage. I did follow the brining step for the onion and cabbage, but I'm not sure how much impact it made. I would be tempted to try this (at least once) without that step.

    This will be my new "go to" coleslaw recipe. I skipped the chile but may add it next time. I may have had more cabbage than called for, so I adjusted the dressing accordingly. I was surprised that so little dressing worked so well, but it was really just enough for the slaw.

    We really enjoyed this salad, nice mix of flavours. I used two larger chiles and it was a quite spicy, I would probably just use one next time. Added some finely chopped celery leaves as I couldn't get hold of any cilantro (bizarre shortage this week I guess) and it was delicious regardless. Used the julienne blade on the food processor for the cabbage and it seemed just the right size. It held up well as leftovers the next day too.

    This was great. The sweetness of the corn really compliments the tanginess of the dressing. The herbs are also nice. I shredded the cabbage on a grater but that really made it too small. I'd use a knife in the future.

    This is a delicious variation on coleslaw, with a good variety of textures and tastes. Compared with many of the recipes in Plenty More, the ingredients in this one are pretty basic, and the preparation is not too time consuming. If you are grilling, make the slaw ahead of time, then add the corn fresh off the grill.
