Ingredients
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine the finely shredded cabbage, sliced red onion, and shredded carrot. Toss them together to ensure even distribution.
In a separate bowl, mix the mayonnaise, rice vinegar, and sugar until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Add the chopped kimchi to the cabbage, onion, and carrot mixture. Pour the dressing over the top and toss everything together until well-coated.
Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
Notes
Finely chop the kimchi into small pieces. This allows its flavors to infuse throughout the coleslaw.
Kimchi coleslaw is a versatile side dish that pairs wonderfully with grilled meats, sandwiches, or wraps. Its spicy crunch and sweet carrot notes make it a standout addition to any meal.
Variations
If you are in a hurry, omit rice vinegar and sugar, mix the rest of the ingredients in a bowl.
Use white or green cabbage and red onion, or, viceversa, red cabbage and white onion.
Use vegan mayonnaise and you will have a vegan dish.
