Servings: persons

2 Tablespoons Cider Vinegar
1 teaspoon Fresh Lemon Juice
3/4 teaspoons Salt
1/4 teaspoons Black Pepper
1/2 cups Olive Oil
2 Tablespoons Sour Cream
2 Tablespoons Butter
3/4 cups Chopped Pecans
2 Tablespoons White Sugar
1/2 heads Green (or Chinese) Cabbage, Finely Chopped
2 whole Apples (yellow Or Green), Unpeeled And Chopped
1-1/2 cup Grated White Cheddar Cheese

1
To make the dressing: measure the vinegar, lemon juice, salt, and pepper into a blender and give it a whirl. Add the olive oil, a little at a time, blending after each addition. Add the sour cream and blend briefly. Taste and adjust seasonings.
2
To make the sugared pecans: melt the butter in a small skillet, add the pecans and stir for one minute. Add the sugar and stir around for a few more minutes, until the pecans start to brown. Transfer the nuts from the skillet to a plate and set aside to cool. They will harden and clump together, but no worries-just break them apart before adding them to the salad.
3
To assemble the salad: in a large bowl, toss the cabbage and apples with the dressing. (At this point, the salad can be stored in the fridge for several hours, maybe even a day or two.) Immediately before serving, stir in the cheese and sprinkle with the pecans.
4
Enjoy!

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Taste as you go and adjust the seasoning before serving.
Avoid overcrowding the pan — cook in batches if needed for the best texture.
Let the dish rest for a few minutes before serving so the flavors settle.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
Leave out the nuts to make it nut-free, or swap in seeds for a similar crunch.
Coconut cream is a reliable plant-based alternative to dairy cream.
