Red Claw Biloela Style Food

CLASSIC COLESLAW

Steps:

• Remove and discard tough outer leaves from the green cabbage. Cut the head in half, cutting through the core. Use the tip of the knife to remove the core from both halves, then cut each half into quarters. Slice each quarter thinly into short strips. Repeat with the red cabbage and place both in a large bowl.
• Whisk together the mayonnaise, vinegar, sugar and celery seeds in a small bowl, then season with salt and pepper. Add more sugar as desired. Toss the cabbage with half the dressing, then lay in a shallow dish (a 9-by-13-inch baking dish works well). Cover and refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours.
• Once cabbage has marinated in the dressing, taste and add reserved dressing as desired. Add the carrots and parsley and toss to combine.

RED, WHITE AND BLUEBERRY COLESLAW

Steps:

• Toss the cabbage, onion, bacon, blueberries, mayonnaise, vinegar and sugar in a large bowl and toss to coat with the dressing. Cover and refrigerate 1 to 4 hours.
• Stir in the pecans and season with salt and pepper just before serving. Sprinkle with reserved the bacon, berries and nuts.

RED CABBAGE SLAW

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk together vinegar and sugar until dissolved. Slowly whisk in oil, celery seed, salt and pepper to taste. Toss in cabbage, carrots, red onion and raisins to coat well. Cover and let sit at least 1 hour.

RED CLAW BILOELA STYLE

Steps:

• With a sharp small knife, cut almost right thru the red claw tail and then crack the tail open. (Try not to break it right thru).
• If the claws are big enough, hit them lightly with a mallet to break the shell.
• Combine the rest of the ingredients and heat till the butter has melted, stir well.
• Put the claws in a container, (square is best).
• Pour a teaspoon of the mix into each cut in your red claw tails, and put on top of the claws.
• Continue until all the claws are coated.
• Pour the rest of the marinade over the top, and leave for 2 or 3 hours. (Stir occasionally).
• Heat a heavy pan and spray with oil. When hot, place tails, shell side down, in the pan. Move them around, and after 5 mins, turn them over. Put the claws on top, and pour over the leftover marinade. Swirl the container with ½ cup water, and add to the pan.
• Cover and turn down the heat.
• Check every few minutes.
• Serve with any leftover sauce poured over, serve with bread to mop it up!
