Apple Coleslaw is a ubiquitous salad that is found all over the world and in all restaurants. There are many variations on the basic theme, where you can add nuts, seeds, fruits and other types of cabbages. In this one I add apple as it helps to lift the coleslaw by adding further crunchiness to the salad. I also try and keep the recipe healthy by using yoghurt and not mayonnaise, which is what most restaurants use.
Servings: 4-6
