Freshly made coleslaw is a wonderful thing, but every now and then it’s fun to zip up the formula with a burst of lively Asian flavours

    This is such a lovely change to ordinary coleslaw. All my family and friends loved it. I always make it epecially for barbeques and part of a buffet. Try it, you won't be disappointed.

    I love the chilli! I added some fish sauce to give it a more Thai flavour and will add fresh coriander next time.
