If you have one, a mandolin makes light work of slicing the vegetables wafer thin.
Serves: 4-6
INGREDIENTS
2 cured chorizo sausages
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 cups very thinly sliced white cabbage
2 cups very thinly sliced red cabbage
1 cup julienne carrot
1 red capsicum thinly sliced
1 x 400 gram tin cooked black beans

1 cup packed coriander leaves with stems, roughly chopped
zest and juice 1 large lime
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 tablespoon honey
½ cup olive oil
sea salt and freshly ground pepper

Dressing: Place the ingredients in a food processor and process until smooth. Season.
Slice the chorizo on the diagonal. Heat the oil in a sauté pan and cook the chorizo until golden on both sides. Drain on paper towel.
