🥗🥢 Vibrant Crispy Cabbage Slaw with Flavorful Sesame Dressing
Ingredients:
1/2 head (about 4 cups or 350g) green cabbage, thinly sliced
1 cup (about 100g) shredded carrots
1/2 cup (about 50g) red bell pepper, thinly sliced
1/4 cup (about 30g) green onions, thinly sliced
1/4 cup (about 25g) chopped cilantro
2 tablespoons (30ml) sesame oil
2 tablespoons (30ml) soy sauce
1 tablespoon (15ml) rice vinegar
1 tablespoon (15ml) honey or maple syrup
1 teaspoon (5ml) fresh ginger, grated
1 clove garlic, minced
1 teaspoon (5g) sesame seeds for garnish (optional)
Directions:
1 In a large bowl, combine the sliced cabbage, shredded carrots, red bell pepper, green onions, and cilantro.
2 In a separate small bowl, whisk together the sesame oil, soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey or maple syrup, grated ginger, and minced garlic until well combined.
3 Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture.
4 Toss gently to coat all the vegetables evenly with the dressing.
5 For best results, let the salad sit for at least 10-15 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld and the cabbage to slightly soften, though it's also delicious served immediately for maximum crunch.
6 Garnish with sesame seeds if desired.
