Creamy Dill Coleslaw (Perfect for Salmon Patties)

  • Author: maya
  • Total Time: 10 minutes (plus 30 minutes chilling)
  • Yield: 6 servings

Description

 This classic coleslaw gets a flavorful upgrade with fresh dill, creating a creamy and tangy side dish that’s perfect for complementing savory salmon patties. It’s quick, easy, and a refreshing addition to any meal.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise

  • 1/4 cup sour cream

  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar

  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar

  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh dill

  • 1 bag (16 ounces) coleslaw mix (shredded cabbage and carrots)

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream, apple cider vinegar, sugar, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper until smooth.

  2. Stir in the chopped fresh dill.

  3. Add the coleslaw mix to the bowl and toss well to coat evenly with the dressing.

  4. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. This also allows the coleslaw to slightly soften.

  5. Stir again before serving.

Notes

Variations: Add a tablespoon of lemon juice for extra tang. For a sweeter coleslaw, increase the sugar to 2 tablespoons. You can also add a finely diced apple for extra crunch and sweetness.

Tips: Make the coleslaw a few hours in advance to allow the flavors to fully develop. If the coleslaw seems too dry after chilling, add a little more mayonnaise or sour cream to reach the desired consistency.

Allergies/Intolerances: This recipe contains dairy (sour cream, mayonnaise). Use dairy-free alternatives for a dairy-free version. Mayonnaise often contains eggs; use an egg-free mayonnaise substitute for those with egg allergies.

Taste Preferences: Adjust the sugar, vinegar, and dill according to your preference. Some people prefer a tangier coleslaw, while others prefer a sweeter one. Start with the recommended amounts and adjust as needed.
