Before adding any of the ingredients together, make sure you first sprinkle your shredded cabbage with a pinch of salt and tease with your hands, pressing lightly, to soften.

Ingredients:

• 300 grams white cabbage, shredded or cut into small pieces:  before cutting, remove the outer leaves and rinse.  Cut the cabbage into small pieces.
• 1 pinch salt
• 1 large carrot, grated
• 2 medium cucumbers, diced
• 1 cup frozen corn niblets, thawed - or you can use canned corn
• 150 grams ham, diced - or any kielbasa - smoked ham, turkey bologna, chicken bologna all work great
• 2 tablespoons dill, chopped
• 2 tablespoons mayonnaise

How to make the Cabbage and Ham Salad:

1. Cut about 300 grams (about 1/4 of a small cabbage) into small pieces. Add a pinch of salt and tease the cabbage squeezing lightly with your hands. The salt will soften the cabbage.
2. Add the grated carrot, diced cucumbers, thawed corn niblets, diced ham, chopped dill, and 2 tablespoons of mayonnaise and stir well. Add salt to taste, if required.
