step 1
Coarsely grate the carrot and finely shred the cabbage (use a food processor with a grating/ slicing blade or do it by hand) and tip into a bowl. Season with salt, then add the sugar and vinegar and toss everything together. Leave for 20 mins for the vegetables to very lightly pickle.
step 2
Stir through the mustard and mayonnaise and add any other bits you want to, then serve. Can be made a day ahead and chilled.
