The Happy Pear’s Vegan Coleslaw

Who doesn’t love a classic coleslaw? This vegan version by The Happy Pear proves you don’t have to miss out on your favourite traditions by eating plant-based.

It’s quick, tasty and delicious and makes a great sandwich filler or base for a salad. We also love to serve this in a toasted sandwich with oyster mushrooms, wilted spinach and cherry tomatoes.

There's more where this came from!

Method

Preheat the oven to 180^oC, gas mark 4. Put the whole garlic clove into a small roasting tin and cook for 10 minutes until it starts to smell fantastic, then remove from the oven and peel.
To make the mayonnaise, blend the roasted garlic, mustard, pepper, and soya milk with a pinch of salt until smooth. Next slowly and gently pour in the sunflower oil, with the blender running. Continue to blend until it starts to emulsify into a mayonnaise-like texture.
Grate the red cabbage, white cabbage and carrot. Finely chop the onion and mix all together in a large bowl. Add in all the mayonnaise et voila! Coleslaw ready to go!
