Preparation
- Using a food processor, chop the cabbage, pulsing until finely chopped, working in small batches to avoid pulverizing it.
- Do the same with the carrot and place both in a medium bowl.
Mixing Dressing
- In a separate small bowl, combine the remaining ingredients and mix until smooth.

Chilling

Notes
Best served chilled. Great as a side for fried chicken, or as a topping for tacos or pulled pork. For a crunchier texture, chop the cabbage and carrot by hand. Adjust the sugar for sweetness, and increase vinegar or lemon juice for tanginess.
