One cabbage, three interesting lunch recipes
So I only had one white cabbage in the fridge, but I wanted three interesting lunches for two this week. Challenge accepted!
It's a strange thing not being able to nip out to the shop at the drop of a hat and get what you want, but it brings out the 'make do and mend' mentality in us all.

Cabbage Thoran
I served this with steamed rice and mango chutney
Thai Influenced Cabbage Salad
We ate this with some grilled prawns I found at the back of the freezer - what an indulgence!
British Coleslaw
I tend to make this if I have some leftover cabbage, because it really does not need to be at its best! Simply shred the cabbage, grate some carrot, smother in mayonnaise and away you go.
I served this with a pork pie, so this was the most effortless lunch this week.

Wow, all three very tasty 😋
You could have tried the Indian one as well with chapati. One of my favs!
Thanks i hope you try them
Thanks I hope you try them all
Good story, thanks for posting. Cabbages would have to be the most underrated food ever.
I put some cabbage through a food processor at the fine chopped setting.
To 1/2 of it, just by adding Woolies whole egg mayo, I have fresh coleslaw.
The other half I steam with rice and chopped potatoes, and serve with canned tuna, mild English mustard, possibly some horse radish, and a dash of fine ground white pepper .
It looks sort of like this picture I found on the internet.
Thanks - Ah Woolies mayo there is a blast from the past I had it in Australia but we don't have it in the UK.
it's very reasonably priced , and has plain packaging, but it's very good .
