Vegan Curried Coleslaw Recipe


When I was little, mum would make this delicious curried coleslaw and I absolutely loved it. It has now been "veganised" and continues to be my favourite coleslaw recipe in the whole world. No more boring coleslaw for you! I think this is a great recipe for a barbecue, picnic or lunch as all vegans and non-vegans will enjoy it due to its amazing flavour! It has the amazing kick of curry powder, the sweetness from the raisins and the sourness from the green apples. Yum yum yum.  I could eat a whole bowl of this for dinner. I really hope you enjoy this as much as we do!


serves 4 as a side


Other:   5 cups thinly sliced green cabbage
   ½ cup thinly sliced green onions
   ½ cup grated carrot
   ¼ cup grated green apple
   ¼ cup raisins

Dressing:
   ¾ cup vegan mayonnaise
   ½ tablespoon curry powder
   salt and pepper
   ½ tablespoon brown sugar
   pinch cayenne pepper



  1. Make the salad dressing by adding all salad dressing ingredients to a bowl. Whisk to combine. Set aside.
  2. Add the cabbage, green onions, carrot, apple and raisins to a large bowl. Toss to combine.
  3. Pour the dressing over the salad. Toss until the salad is evenly coated by the dressing.
  4. Serve immediately or refrigerate until needed.

  • You can use our vegan mayonnaise recipe located here or purchase a store-bought brand.
  • Season with salt and pepper as desired to your liking. Also, if you like a sweeter coleslaw, feel free to add any sweeteners. 
  • Add more curry powder to your liking. If you live in Australia,  I use Keens Curry Powder.

  7. This was divine, I did do a few variations, I used the dole bag mix of coleslaw, I used malt vinegar instead of the apple cider vinegar,I did not add the onion,I put in the zest and juice of one lemon,I grated in the apple instead of chunking it. I love the spices, and this one is a keeper!

    Thanks Madison!
