Hi Ben,
BC> Title: KFC Cole Slaw
DD> One of the (few) things that the Colonel gets "right".
That's one of the things I don't like about KFC. OTOH, my usual side
dish at Popeye's is cole slaw.
BC> Here's a low fat recipe for KFC Cole Slaw. Coleslaw varies a lot from
BC> place to place. I used to get it at A&W but the last few times i
BC> noticed it was ridiculously sweet. They over-sugared it by far. When
BC> i make it at home, i do not use any sugar at all.
My mother in law gave me the cole slaw recipe we like--and judge all
others by its standard. I can't give specific amounts of ingredients
because I don't measure (except by "looks about right") when I make it.
MOM'S COLE SLAW
Cabbage, slice, diced, about half a head, maybe 4 cups
One good sized carrot, shredded
Pineapple, either crushed or chopped up slices or tidbits, about half a
cup
Sugar, maybe 1 tbsp, give or take
Salt and pepper to taste
About 1/4 cup pineapple juice
Mayonaise
Combine cabbage, carrot and pineapple juice. Add sugar, s&p, mayo to
taste and enough pineapple juice to slightly thin mayo. Chill for
several hours.
Sorry I can't be more specific but I've made this for so many years
without measuring that this is the closest I can come to exact amounts.
The pineapple is what elevates this from a mediocre to a really good
slaw in our opinion.
