An Easter Color: Red cabbage slaw

Isn't deep purple perfect for Easter? Red cabbage slaw which needs a few hours of macerating is good food to make on another day of chores. There is a real prospect here on a double level: the chores and the food.

Red cabbage slaw

Salad from a movement called Mazdaznan, in Greet Buchner, Wegen naar gezondheid (Ways to Health).

1/2 red cabbage, sliced, and washed (the color of the water turns blue)
3 tablespoons oil
1 teaspoon (or less) salt
curry powder
1 teaspoon of sugar (omitted here *)
1 onion, chopped
1/2 lemon, juiced

Combine all the ingredients, and mix well.

I did not use the onion today, but 3 spring onions and a bunch of chopped chives.

*When stark sober, not ill, not craving sunshine, and not faced with Dutch licorice in a gas station, this blog writer doesn't buy the teaspoon of sugar in food.
