Ingredients

½ red cabbage
3 medium carrots
1 medium red onion
¼ cup raisins (50g)
¼ cup flaked almonds (20g)
Small handful of fresh mint
Handful of pumpkin seeds

Dressing

2 cloves of garlic
Small piece of fresh ginger
2 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp lime juice
1½ tsp ground cumin
1½ tsp ground turmeric
½ tsp sea salt and a few grinds of black pepper
2 tsp maple syrup optional

Instructions

Using a veg peeler, cut the red cabbage into thin strips. You could also do this in a food processor, if preferred. Scrub the carrots, no need to peel, then grate them. Peel the red onion and grate that too. Add them both to the bowl with the cabbage.
Add the raisins, almonds and some chopped fresh mint to the bowl.
For the dressing, finely grate the garlic and ginger and add to a small bowl. Add all the other dressing ingredients and mix well. Pour over the salad, mix well, sprinkle over a few pumpkin seeds and serve.

Notes

This will store well in the fridge for 3-4 days.
