Takeaway style kebab salad

I have just gone through a good 6 months there of not being able to get enough of the shish kebab. I love them. None of that donner stuff (although there are a few good places in glasgow to get a good one) which although tasty tends to be rammed full of fat. However, what i found myself enjoying the most was the delicious salad they serve with the kebab. The combination is heaven. Now, i haven't yet found the ultimate way for getting the meat so tender and tasty (still working on that) I have however come up with a version of the salad and here it is...

ingredients:
1/4 white cabbage
1 red chilli, finely sliced
handful of cherry tomatoes, quartered
handful of flat leaf parsley and coriander mixed, chopped
1 carrot
1/2 red onion
juice of 1 lime
sea salt

how to:
Get a large salad bowl and using a mandolin on a thin slice setting, slice the white cabbage, red onion and carrot into the bowl.
Ad the chilli, cherry tomatoes and parsley/coriander. Mix together.
Add the lime juice and season well with salt.

It's pretty fiery but mouthwateringly delicious. Great with the earlier flatbread recipe too.
Also, if you don't have a mandolin just try and slice as thinly as possible the carrot, cabbage and onion. good luck.

enjoy...
