Kachumbari

African Coleslaw

Sponsored Links
Kachumbari is a cold side dish of shredded or finely chopped vegetables in a vinegar or lemon juice dressing. This is a lovely side dish known to some as African coleslaw. Jim and I had it made with shredded cabbage and carrot quite often. While I missed a traditional green salad at times while in Kenya, this dish made me think a bit more of home.

The Kachumbari Recipe

Ingredients

1 red or green chili (de-seeded, cut lengthwise into fine slivers)
2 small onions (thinly sliced)
5 thinly sliced tomatoes
1/2 cup finely chopped Coriander leaves
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Juice of 1 lime
3 tbsp olive oil

Methold

Place the sliced tomatoes, onions, chilli and chopped coriander into a large serving bowl.
Add the lime juice and olive oil and toss evenly into the mixture.
Season with the salt and freshly ground black pepper.

Serve and enjoy!
