Restated from the original video

  1. 1

    Cut the cabbage into quarters and slice out the core. Shred the cabbage as thinly as you can with a sharp knife, about 2 mm (1/16 in) wide.

  2. 2

    Put the cabbage in a large bowl, sprinkle with the salt and massage it with your hands for 1-2 min until it begins to soften and look glossy.

  3. 3

    Grate the carrot on the coarse side of a box grater and add it to the bowl.

  4. 4

    Whisk the lemon juice and olive oil together and pour over the salad.

  5. 5

    Toss well, then leave to stand for 15 min so the cabbage absorbs the dressing.

  6. 6

    Toss again, taste for salt and lemon, and serve cold or at room temperature.
