This is the primary way vegetable salad is made in Cameroon. A bunch of vegetables are chopped, then laid on a tray/salad bowl decoratively. The salad cream/dressing is absolutely to die for. It is extra creamy, sweet and tangy.
Ingredients
- 3 cups cabbage -chopped about 1/4 of a medium cabbage
- 3 cups red/purple cabbage – chopped about 1/4 of a medium cabbage
- 3 cups shredded carrots 2 large carrots
- 1/2 medium cucumber
- 2 tomatoes
- 1/2 onion
- 2 hardboiled eggs
- 1 avocado
For the salad dressing
- 1 cup mayonnaise (approx 239 grams)
- 2 tablespoons condensed milk
- 2 tablespoons white vinegar
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil of choice – I used corn oil
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
Chop all the un-chopped vegetables into bite-size pieces. Also chop the eggs and avocado. Arrange them all on a tray/bowl in any pattern you like.
To make the salad cream: Combine all the ingredients and whisk until smooth. You could equally blend them or put in a container with a tight lid and shake until smooth.
Pour the dressing over the vegetables and enjoy!
