Coleslaw sandwich recipe with step by step photos – quick to prepare sandwiches with veg coleslaw.
At times I make a Cabbage coleslaw or a mix veg coleslaw to make sandwiches or use them in burgers. This is an easy coleslaw sandwich and gets done quickly if you have a food processor or food chopper for chopping the veggies.
I have used a mix of cabbage, carrots and capsicum. I have also added steamed corn kernels. Instead of corn kernels you can also add steamed or boiled green peas. Do note that all the veggies are raw except the steamed corn kernels. If you want you can blanch the cabbage leaves. I used the store brought eggless mayonnaise to make the coleslaw. You can use homemade too if you have it. I usually do not grill these sandwiches, but you can toast or grill them if you want.
Basically coleslaw is a cabbage salad which is said to have originated from Netherlands. It has a mayonnaise dressing and in some instances, sour cream is also added.
Coleslaw sandwich makes for a good light breakfast or brunch or snack. You can serve them plain or accompany them with some french fries or potato wedges. These sandwiches also make nice finger food for parties.
How to make coleslaw sandwich
1. First rinse and finely chop the veggies in a food chopper or a food processor or with a knife. You will need ¼ cup finely chopped cabbage, ¼ cup tightly packed finely chopped carrots, 2 tablespoons finely chopped capsicum and 2 tablespoons finely chopped spring onions or onions. Also add ¼ cup boiled or steamed corn kernels. You can skip corn if you want.
2. Mix the veggies.
3. Then add ¼ cup mayonnaise. You can use eggless or vegan mayonnaise.
4. Now add ¼ to ½ teaspoon black pepper powder, a pinch of salt and 1 teaspoon sugar. I usually make these sandwiches slightly sweet. If you want you can add less sugar. Addition of sugar also depends on the sweetness in the mayonnaise sauce. So you can even skip sugar or add very less depending on the sweetness of the mayonnaise sauce you are using.
5. Then add ½ teaspoon lemon juice. If you want, you can also add some red chili flakes or some dried herbs like oregano, thyme, basil. For a spicy taste, you can add 1 green chili (finely chopped). I have made these sandwiches with green chilies for myself and they taste good.
6. Mix everything very well. Check the taste and add some more salt, sugar or black pepper if required.
7. Take the bread slices and spread some butter on them. This is an optional step. I have used Wheat bread. you can use any bread of your choice.
8. Now spread veg coleslaw stuffing on the bread slices.
9. Place on top the remaining buttered slices and slice the sandwiches in rectangles or triangles or small squares. If you want you can even toast or grill these sandwiches.
10. Serve coleslaw sandwich plain or accompanied with some french fries.
