- 240g Carrots, finely shredded
- 240ml White wine

1. First prepare the topping. In a large bowl, mix together the cabbage, carrot, vinegar, oregano and chilli. Season with salt and freshly ground pepper.2. Set aside to marinate for 2 hours in the refrigerator.
3. To make the dough, place the white cornmeal, salt, lime juice and water in a large bowl.
4. Bring together to form a dough, cover the bowl and set aside to rest for 30 minutes.
5. Tear off egg-sized pieces of dough and shape each piece into a ball.
6. Make an indentation in the middle of a dough ball and fill with at least a tablespoon of Cheddar cheese.
7. Repeat this with the remaining dough.
8. Using your hands, flatten each Cheddar-filled dough ball to around a 7.5cm disc.
9. Heat a griddle pan and cook each dough disc for around 3 minutes on each side.
10. Top each griddled cornbread with a spoonful of the marinated topping.
11. Serve at once while warm.
