Comfy Cuisine- Home Recipes from Family & Friends: KFC Style Buttermilk Coleslaw

Not very long ago, I made the effort to try and duplicate KFC’s Mashed Potato Bowl at home.  I managed to get something quite close to the original.  I had the chicken, the biscuits, even the gravy – but not the coleslaw!  This makes my copycat recipes complete!




KFC Mashed Potato Bowl Recipe


4 cups grated cabbage

1 medium carrot, grated

2 Tbsp. onion, grated

1/2 cup mayonnaise

1/3 cup sugar

1/4 cup milk

1/4 cup buttermilk

2-1/2 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice

1-1/2 Tbsp. white vinegar

1/2 tsp. celery seed

Salt and Pepper to taste

Roughly slice cabbage and add to food processor.  Pulse 3 or 4 times to get a small chop.  Grate carrot on a box grater and add to cabbage.

In a small bowl whisk remaining ingredients until smooth.  Add to cabbage to combine.  Refrigerate at least 2 hours or overnight.


Enjoy!
