Red cabbage salad with kale – a recipe for the most delicious fresh red cabbage salad, one of my favourites on the Christmas table. This lovely salad is full of good things like pomegranate, orange and pecans. A fresh, tangy and sweet element is wonderful alongside the rich, heavy food, and every year I am the one who makes the fresh red cabbage salad on Christmas Eve. Of course we also have the classic warm red cabbage.
The salad has both finely shredded red cabbage and kale, mostly because we have kale in the garden, which always looks so nice at Christmas, but you can easily leave it out. The honey-toasted pecans add a lovely sweet and crunchy element. You can also use almonds or hazelnuts. Also try my red cabbage salad with roasted carrots. Enjoy!

Ingredients
Instructions
Fresh red cabbage salad
Finely shred the red cabbage and kale. Toss the kale with the juice of half an orange and the salt. Place the red cabbage and kale on a serving platter. Remove the pomegranate seeds, segment the rest of the oranges, slice the dates and arrange it all on the cabbage. Toast the pecans and honey in a dry pan until the honey has melted and the nuts are lightly golden. Transfer the nuts to baking paper and let them cool. Chop roughly and sprinkle over the salad. Enjoy!
