Homemade best: 8 top coleslaws tested

You can add carrot and onion for a traditional recipe or experiment with beetroot, fennel, and celeriac — once there is cabbage in the mix we can call it coleslaw.
A few top chefs mix just about anything shredded together and call it a slaw, which certainly makes life interesting. It’s not essential either to use mayonnaise and I have made some delicious slaws with an oil and vinegar dressing, serving Greek yoghurt mixed with grated garlic and olive oil on the side, thanks to Yotam Ottolenghi.
