Steps:

• Shred the cabbage by very thinly slicing or use a mandolin. If making an extra-large batch using your food processor with grater attachment is a good option. See notes for adding other veggies.
• Add the cilantro, onion (see note), jalapeno, lime zest and lime juice, olive oil, salt, cumin, coriander and pepper.
• Toss well. Taste and adjust salt and lime to your liking. Add extra jalapeno if you like.
• Keep in the fridge until ready to serve.
