Ingredients

Salad Ingredients:

½ head green, or white cabbage
2-3 carrots
¼ white onion
1 ½ sweet bell peppers (a mixture of ½ each: red, yellow & green)
2 pieces jalapeño (the pickled kind)
2 pickled cucumbers

Dressing:

2 tablespoon herb vinegar, or white wine vinegar
1 tablespoon jalapeno juice
5 tablespoon olive oil
½ tablespoon sugar
salt & pepper to taste

Instructions

1. Cut the cabbage into very thin ribbons. The thinner the cabbage the better the salad will be. I used a food processor with the slice blade attachment. Alternatively, a box grater, mandoline or a sharp knife will work just fine.
2. Peel the carrots, and either chop or finely grate it. Finely dice the peppers, onions, pickles, and jalpenos. Add together with the sliced cabbage in a large bowl.
3. Prepare the dressing. In a small bowl whisk together olive oil, vinegar, jalapenio juice, sugar, and about a half teaspoon of salt. Mix, and pour over the cabbage mixture. Add freshly ground pepper, mix it all togheter and adjust salt & pepper to taste.
