quick, quick, slaw

I made this to go with the jerk pork on Sunday. I love slaws, I particularly like them with fatty meats and rich sauces like the jerk pork recipe, I think they add a freshness that balances out the sweetness and a crunch to contrast with the soft texture of the slow cooked meat.

All you really need is a mix of really crunchy veg that definitely will include cabbage and a sour dressing.

You then need to slice them very finely (I think this texture is important) either use a mandoline or a food processor … I’m a mandoline man
