1 bag shredded carrots
1 tablespoon fennel seed, ground up
2 tablespoons fresh squeezed lemon juice
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
1/4 cup fresh mint, chopped
salt and pepper to taste
I buy the bag of shredded carrots in the produce section at the supermarket where they have the bags of lettuce. I grind the fennel seed in a mortar and pestle, but you could use an electric spice grinder, too.
Mix everything together except for the olive oil, then drizzle that in until you get a consistency you like. You might not like the whole 1/2 cup, but you do need enough to make the slaw stick together so it doesn't fall out all over the place when you go to eat your sandwich. Add salt and pepper and mix, tasting until you get the flavor you want. Pile on top of your sausage sandwich and wash down with a bunch of beer
