This recipe is a simple version of the traditional "cortido" — a Salvadoran cabbage salad which is actually fermented. If you have a little more time, then this slaw left in the fridge for a week or two turns into something quite magnificent, a true cortido. Try it with the popular Mexican slow-cooked pork dish, Puerco pibil.
