How to Prepare Red Cabbage Coleslaw [Vegan, Oil-Free]

Start by grating the cabbage and carrot. Use food processor or manual grater.
In a large mixing bowl, massage the shredded carrots and red cabbage with all the remaining ingredients. It’s better to use gloves as red cabbage stains a lot. Keep on going until you release the juices from cabbage. Store in a sealed container or jar in fridge. It’ll keep for 3-4 days.
You might also mix the coleslaw dressing ingredients separately in a small bowl before pouring it onto grated cabbage and carrots.
