- Half a red cabbage, cored and sliced very thinly – you could use a mandoline but I honestly find it easier with one of the sharp knives
- A red onion, peeled and sliced very thinly
- A lime
- A lemon
- 3 cloves of pickled garlic
- 1 tbsp pomegranate molasses
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- Salt
- White pepper
Combine the cabbage, red onion and grated garlic in a big bowl. Add the salt and thoroughly massage into the vegetables, crushing with your hands until the cabbage and onion softens and gives up some of its juice. Leave it to sit for half an hour or so.
Zest the lime and the lemon into the mix, then add their juice, the molasses, the pepper and the olive oil. Taste and adjust the seasoning – you may need a little sugar to balance the acid depending on your lime.
