Coleslaw is the ideal accompaniment to BBQ burgers, fried chicken, sandwiches and even pizza. One food expert at Kitchen Sanctuary said: "There's no need to buy a big tub of coleslaw with an annoyingly short expiration date. "[Especially] when you can whip up a perfect sized batch of homemade coleslaw in five minutes."

While many would recommend adding yoghurt to the mixture, the foodie has swapped out yoghurt for another ingredient. Instead of adding yoghurt to make the coleslaw, it's recommended to use sour cream for the "best" creamy coleslaw you would ever taste.

Coleslaw

Ingredients

One medium white cabbage

Two medium carrots, peeled

Quarter brown onion, peeled

240g mayonnaise

Three tbsp sour cream

One tbsp white wine vinegar

Half tsp salt

Two tsp sugar

One-eight tsp mustard powder

Pinch of white pepper

Method

In a tutorial video posted to YouTube, the home cook demonstrated how to make the "delicious" coleslaw.

First, slice the cabbage, carrots and onion into thin strips (either with a mandolin or a sharp knife), then add into a large bowl.

Next, add the creamy ingredients – mayonnaise and sour cream – into the bowl.

Then add in the white vinegar, salt, sugar, mustard powder, and white pepper. Stir everything together. Now serve.

Followers of the recipe have gone onto the social media platform to praise the coleslaw.

One simple said that the coleslaw "turned out amazing" and is "way better than store-bought [coleslaw".

Another added: "I made it today and totally loved it. It's my new go-to coleslaw."

Somebody else rebutted: "I made my own coleslaw; I just made it up as I went along. I don't add any sugar. You don't need it."
