It\u2019s a well-known copycat that tastes very close to the original KFC coleslaw served with fried chicken. The secret is finely chopped vegetables and letting the coleslaw rest so the flavors fully develop.<\/p>\n<h2>\u00a0Ingredients<\/h2>\n<h3><strong>For the Dressing<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>120 ml (\u00bd cup) mayonnaise<\/li>\n<li>65 g (\u2153 cup) granulated sugar<\/li>\n<li>60 ml (\u00bc cup) whole milk<\/li>\n<li>60 ml (\u00bc cup) buttermilk<\/li>\n<li>38 ml (2\u00bd tablespoons) freshly squeezed lemon juice<\/li>\n<li>22 ml (1\u00bd tablespoons) distilled white vinegar<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>For the Vegetables<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>1 small green cabbage (about 900 g \/ 2 lb), very finely chopped<\/li>\n<li>1 medium carrot, finely grated<\/li>\n<li>2 tablespoons onion, very finely minced (optional but recommended for authentic flavor)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>\u00a0Instructions<\/h2>\n<h3><strong>Step 1: Prepare the Vegetables<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Remove the outer leaves of the cabbage and wash it well.<\/li>\n<li>Cut the cabbage into small pieces, then finely chop it using a sharp knife or food processor. The texture should be very fine, almost minced.<\/li>\n<li>Peel and grate the carrot using a fine grater.<\/li>\n<li>Finely mince the onion until very small.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Place all the vegetables into a large mixing bowl.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Step 2: Make the Dressing<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>In a separate bowl or blender, combine:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Mayonnaise<\/li>\n<li>Sugar<\/li>\n<li>Whole milk<\/li>\n<li>Buttermilk<\/li>\n<li>Lemon juice<\/li>\n<li>White vinegar<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Whisk or blend until the dressing is completely smooth and creamy, and the sugar is fully dissolved.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Step 3: Combine<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Pour the dressing over the chopped vegetables.<\/li>\n<li>Mix thoroughly using a spoon or spatula until all the vegetables are evenly coated with the dressing.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>Step 4: Chill<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid.<\/li>\n<li>Refrigerate for <strong>at least 4 hours<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li>For best results, refrigerate <strong>overnight (8\u201312 hours)<\/strong>.
