Crunchy Asian Slaw

The peanuts and sesame seeds add texture and nuttiness, and the chilli adds a little bit of heat. You can also add some refreshing, crunchy green apple for that delicious sweet and sour tang. It’s the perfect side to a piece of grilled chicken, fish, steak, or tofu with an Asian marinade such as this one. This is a great salad to make a big batch of in advance and leave in the fridge to take for lunch each day – just add the dressing when you’re ready to eat!

Ingredients :
  • 1/4 cup Lemon or lime juice
  • 1 tbsp. Extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 1/2 tbsp. Soy sauce or fish sauce
  • 2 tsp. Sesame oil
  • 1 Red chilli
  • 1/4 cup Mint and coriander
  • 1 tbsp. Toasted sesame seeds
  • 1/3 cup Roasted peanuts or cashew nuts
  • 1 Carrot
  • 1 Green apple
  • 1/4 Purple or green cabbage
Directions :
  1. Finely shred cabbage until you have about 3-4 cups' worth.
  2. Thinly slice the apple and then cut into thin matchsticks.
  3. Peel carrot, then shred or coarsely grate, or cut into thin matchsticks.
  4. Mix all dressing ingredients together and toss with the shredded cabbage, apple, carrot, nuts, toasted sesame seeds and chilli (if using), just before serving.
