Cabbage and Carrot Salad

Gluten-free, vegan Cabbage and Carrot Salad.

Cabbage and Carrot Salad is a classic Greek salad which I really enjoyed as an accompaniment to many meals on a late-summer holiday to Paxos. It was on every menu, was so simple, gluten-free and vegan and did not contain onions or garlic so I did not need to be ‘fussy’ and ask for changes to the dish. The salad came undressed and it is delicious with or without dressing.

The salads I ate inspired me to make my own really simple dish at home. I adore raw carrots so it seemed perfect. Sesame seeds add a crunchy texture and an interesting depth of flavour.

Cabbage and Carrot Salad works as a great side to lots of dishes including: staying with the Greek theme Briam – Definitely Not Greek Ratatouille or how about Butter Beans and Rosemary in Tangy Tomato Sauce and Butter Bean Stew and Dumplings?
