Does This Slaw Recipe Sound Good to You?

Sooner — Sun, 27 Jun 2021 23:45:08 GMT

I saw part of a Pioneer Woman show recently and she made a very odd slaw--at least odd to me. There is no mayo or oil in it.

I love both kinds of slaw and make them often--with or without oil or mayo or sometimes both, but to me this version is odd.

Does it sound good to you?

Mango Slaw to go with Caribbean burgers

1/2 head red cabbage, thinly sliced

4 limes, juiced

2 tablespoons sriracha

1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more for seasoning

1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper, plus more for seasoning

2 fresh mangos

1 bunch scallions, green and white parts, thinly sliced

4 sprigs mint, leaves torn

Toss all ingredients except mangos and add just before serving.

It sounds great to me, something different and I love mangoes.

@Kachina624 LOL!!! I've had my mango today and we have 5 on the counter! We love them with everything, especially with avocados, grape tomatoes and red onion. OH is that good!

They are great on oatmeal (barely cooked or steele cut--not gummy) too!

I think this slaw needs some oil or a little oil and mayo in it. Seems like it would be too sharp to me.

@Sooner Sounds refreshing to me. I definitely would give it a go.

Harris Teeter has mangoes on special this week, too, so I think I will try it. Have all the other ingredients listed.

It sounds very good to me. I'm not a fan of over sweet , too much Mayo ladened slaw.

This slaw sounds great; I have had something similar that had peaches instead of mangoes. The limes and mangoes should keep it juicy enough it doesn’t need mayo or oil. Would be great with grilled chicken.

@QVCkitty1 I love very sweet and creamy, ice cold slaw made with finely shredded cabbage and not a lot of other "stuff" in it with very hot and spicy smoked ribs. That is heaven to me!

Otherwise, I'll use very little mayo or do an old and vinegar type slaw that keeps well and it pretty tart.

Parts of this recipe look good.

Traditional slaw would be my preference, but it sounds like there are many posters who would enjoy it.

It was no for me after the third ingredient. My mom used to make slaw with a bit of pineapple. I love cabbage but not vinigary. I like it with a little bit of raisins also.

It's definitely a non-traditional version and I would love this if not for the fact that I'm not real fond of cabbage.

I think it sounds refreshing and different...but it seems it would be dry to me!

I don't think the lime juice is enough....

I love fruit, but not with something that I consider savory. I'm more a fan of traditional cole slaw.

@Sooner Got the mangoes this morning. I mixed up the rest of the ingredients yesterday and refrigerated overnight and added the mangoes earlier today.

Just dished it up to go with hamburgers and enjoyed it.

It won't replace traditional Kentucky Fried Chicken coleslaw--which is my absolute favorite--but it is good and has a delightful flavor profile so I definitely will add this to my rotation of sides.

I think it would be good with a fish dish such as mahi mahi or monkfish.

Best, and thank you for posting this.

Siracha and mint in cole slaw doesn't sound good to me
