- 2 tbsp caster sugar
- 2 tbsp red wine vinegar
- 100g sourdough bread
- Olive oil for drizzling
- ¼ red cabbage, thinly sliced

For the dressing

- 1 tbsp wholegrain mustard

Method
- Put the onion, sugar and vinegar in a small bowl and set aside for 10 minutes. Heat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas 7. Tear the bread into bite-size pieces, then spread over a baking tray. Drizzle with oil and season, then bake for 5-10 minutes until golden and crisp. Set aside.

Have the veg ready sliced in the fridge and the dressing made up to 4 hours in advance, but combine them no more than 30 minutes before serving. If you’re leaving the veg in the fridge, toss it with a little lemon juice and cover with a damp piece of kitchen paper to keep it from browning.
