Coleslaw

Welcome back! 
Following up on Chicken Tenders on our fast food recreations is coleslaw! This is a great dish that is commonly featured alongside fried chicken whether it's drumsticks, tenders, or a even a taco! (Did you know KFC has a fried chicken taco available in Singapore?) This is a pretty standard recipe, and honestly tastes quite like those seen in fast food chains.

Coleslaw

Makes a lot

Ingredients:

  • Half of a cabbage, shredded (this is about 4 cups)
  • 1 small carrot, shredded
  • 1 tablespoon onion, minced (optional)
  • 1/2 cup mayo
  • 3 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 1/2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 1/2 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • A pinch of paprika

Directions:

  1. Chop up all of the vegetables.
  2. Mix together all of the ingredients.
  3. Chill for at least four hours, or preferred, overnight.
  4. That's it!

We tried to add some celery seeds once, but it tasted a little different. Li'l Chefpo thinks it has to do with the sweetness of the coleslaw which doesn't match with the celery. You could totally try it, but be cautious in adding the right amount of celery. because a little can make quite a lot of flavor in the coleslaw.

Tuscan Soup

Welcome back!  Today, we have a delicious soup originating from Tuscany, Italy (this is the region where Florence is in). Traditionally, this dish is a combination of various vegetables with some Italian bacon and Tuscan bread. The one we made is more Americanized, featuring Italian sausage, and it's a little heartier. However, they are still pretty similar in the vegetables used: kale, potatoes, carrots, etc.  Tuscan Soup Makes 4 servings Ingredients: 1/2 tablespoon olive oil 8 to 10 ounces Italian sausage 1 medium onion, chopped 3 cloves garlic, minced 2 tablespoons flour 3 cups chicken broth 1 to 2 cups half & half 1 large potato, diced 1 medium carrot, diced 1/2 bunch kale, chopped Salt and pepper to taste Directions: Steam the potato and carrot and save it for later.
