  • Total Time: 10 minutes
  • Yield: 2 servings

Ingredients

Salad Ingredients

  • 6 cups shredded green cabbage
  • 1 lemon, juiced (about 1/4 cup)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons dried mint
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons minced parsley

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: Place the shredded green cabbage, lemon juice, olive oil, dried mint, minced garlic, salt, pepper, and minced parsley into a large bowl.
  2. Toss Salad: Toss all the ingredients thoroughly to coat the cabbage evenly with the dressing and herbs, ensuring all flavors are well incorporated.
  3. Season to Taste: Taste the salad and adjust the seasoning by adding more lemon juice, garlic, or salt according to your preference for a balanced flavor.

Notes

  • For best flavor, allow the salad to sit for 10-15 minutes before serving so the cabbage softens slightly and absorbs the dressing.
  • You can substitute fresh mint if available for a brighter flavor, using about 1/4 cup chopped.
  • This salad pairs well with grilled meats or as part of a mezze platter.
  • To keep the salad crispier, prepare just before serving.
