CRUNCHY ASIAN RAMEN COLE SLAW



Crunchy Asian Ramen Cole Slaw image

I recieved this recipe from my future sister-inlaw, Amy. She got the recipe from her aunt Diana. My family loves this slaw. I chilled my slaw sauce before using while preparing the other ingredients. When I made this I used white vinegar (I do not recommend Apple Cider Vinegar). I recommend using good quality Ramen noodles no off brands. I also use Sunkist Almond Accents roasted garlic caesar flavored sliced almonds. I also allowed my browned noodles, almonds and seeds to cool before mixing into the shredded slaw. Diana says "Do not pour sauce onto slaw mix until ready to serve or the noodles will become soggy".

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 pork tenderloins, each about 12 ounces, silver skin removed
1 tablespoon peanut oil
2 teaspoons Chinese five-spice powder
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 1/2 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 1/2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 1/2 teaspoons mirin
1 lime, juiced
1 1/2 teaspoons finely grated peeled fresh ginger

4 scallions (white and green parts), thinly sliced
1 orange or yellow bell pepper, stemmed, seeded, and thinly sliced
1 red apple, such as Macoun, Cortland, or Pink Lady
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Position a rack closest to the broiler and preheat to high.
  • Brush the tenderloins with the oil and rub all over with the five-spice powder. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Lay the pork on a broiler pan and, broil turning once, until golden, about 5 to 7 minutes per side. (An instant-read thermometer should register between 140 and 150 degrees F when inserted into the thickest part of the meat.) Set meat aside for at least for 5 minutes before slicing.
  • Meanwhile, whisk the vinegar with the soy sauce, mirin, lime juice, and ginger in a glass measuring cup. Gradually whisk in the peanut and sesame oils. Toss the cabbage, radicchio, scallions, and bell pepper in a large bowl with 1/4 cup of the vinaigrette. Grate the apple (with the skin but not the seeds) directly into the slaw, and toss again. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper.
  • Slice the pork and divide among 4 plates. Garnish with some of the slaw and drizzle with remaining vinaigrette. Serve.

ASIAN SALAD / COLE SLAW / CHINESE COLE SLAW - LIGHT



Asian Salad / Cole Slaw / Chinese Cole Slaw - Light image

I adapted this recipe from #54866 and had so many tweaks and changes from the original that I needed to put this one down so I could remember it all. I've omitted alot of the oil from the original to lighten it up. This is great for summer time BBQ's as a side dish. Or grill some chicken and you've got a Chinese Chicken Salad.

Categories     Vegetable

Time 30m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 head cabbage (I use green)
4 green onions, sliced thinly, include the whites and greens
1 -2 minced garlic clove (I used the minced from the jar to save time)
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, diced (I used the minced that is prepared in the jar to save time)
1 carrot, shredded
1 (6 ounce) package ramen noodles, uncooked, discard seasonings
1/4 cup sunflower seeds
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
1 cup slice almonds
1/2 cup sugar
1/8 cup sesame oil
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup rice wine vinegar
1 tablespoon light soy sauce

Steps:

  • Prepare Salad.
  • 1) slice cabbage into small bite size pieces.
  • 2) Add garlic, ginger, green onions, and carrots. Toss to combine.
  • Note: If you are making ahead of time, place this salad mixture in a ziploc bag or covered storage bowl. It will keep in the refrigerator for about 4 days or longer depending on how you store it.
  • Prepare Crunchies.
  • 1) Break the ramen noodles into pieces, but not too small that you loose the look of the noodle. Spread flat on a cookie sheet or jelly roll pan.
  • 2) Sprinkle over the top - Sunflower & Sesame seeds and slice almonds. Mist with Olive Oil mister to lightly coat.
  • 3) Place pan under the broiler until lightly toasted. Stir gently if needed. This will happen pretty fast, so don't let them burn. Once brown remove from oven to cool.
  • Note: If preparing ahead of time, once cooled place crunchies in a ziploc bag.
  • Prepare Sauce.
  • 1) Place all ingredients for the sauce in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Stir until the sugar dissolves and the sauce thickens to a syrup like consistency. Keep stirring so it doesn't burn.
  • Note: If preparing ahead of time you have two options. One is the make the sauce and refrigerate it in a container. Just prior to serving you can reheat the sauce in the micowave or allow it to come to room temp to toss it. OR you can just make the sauce the day of.
  • Another option if you have a small family. Keep all 3 parts separate and toss just prior to serving. The salad and crunchies will keep for several days. I will slightly heat the sauce in the microwave so that it's not so thick and will toss easily. I'll just toss a bowl or two at a time and the rest will keep.
