Categories     Salad

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 12

Juice from 1 mandarin orange (about ¼ cup)
2 tablespoons tahini
3 tablespoons each: toasted sesame oil and avocado oil (or another light flavored oil)
2 tablespoons each: rice wine vinegar, honey (or maple syrup for vegan), and soy sauce (sub coco aminos for paleo)
½ teaspoon each: finely minced ginger and garlic
1 lb thinly shaved cabbage (I like half purple and half green cabbage)
2 carrots (sliced into thin strips (a mandolin works great for this))
1 red pepper (thinly sliced)
½ cup roasted salted cashews
3 mandarin oranges (peeled and segmented)
¼ cup cilantro (chopped)
2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds

Steps:

  • Place all the ingredients in a 2 cup glass jar and give it a good shake. It's ready to go when it's creamy. Note: if your tahini is very thick, mix it with the orange juice first then add the rest of the ingredients and shake.
  • Add all the Asian coleslaw ingredients to a large salad bowl. Pour the dressing over the top and toss to coat.

ASIAN STYLE SLAW



Asian Style Slaw image

I always like to have a few salads at my BBQ to balance out the heavier stuff. Cole slaw is one of the classics, and I love it, but I like to make it my own by mixing in a few Asian flavors. I use the pre-shredded coleslaw mix that comes in bags at the supermarket or for red and green shredded cabbage packaged separately. And then I dress it up with some other fresh ingredients to make an outstanding and different kind of slaw.

Categories     side-dish

Time 10m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 bunch (6 large) scallions, trimmed and thinly sliced
2 (16-ounce) bags coleslaw mix or 1 (16-ounce) bag each of shredded green and shredded red cabbage
1 small red onion, thinly sliced
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/4 cup vegetable oil
2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger (from about a 1-inch piece)
2 tablespoons white vinegar
2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
2 teaspoons Asian sesame oil
2 teaspoons sesame seeds, optional
1 teaspoon salt
20 grinds black pepper

Steps:

  • Rough up the scallion slices a little with your fingers so all the little layers of the scallion whites separate. Toss the coleslaw mix or both kinds of cabbage, the red onion and scallions together in a large bowl until everything is thoroughly mixed. You can make the slaw up to this point up to a day in advance as long as you keep it refrigerated. Before serving, simply bring the slaw back to room temperature, make the dressing and toss.
  • Stir the remaining ingredients together in a small bowl until blended, then pour over the vegetables. Serve within 1 hour of dressing or the cabbage will get wilty and sad.

Categories     Salad     Side Dish     Make-ahead     Quick and Easy     Cabbage     Coleslaw     Salad

Time 15m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

For the dressing:
1 tablespoon creamy peanut butter
6 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/2 teaspoon toasted (dark) sesame oil
4 tablespoons seasoned rice vinegar (if seasoned rice vinegar is not available, add a teaspoon or two of sugar to regular rice vinegar)
For the salad:
8 cups thinly sliced cabbage (Napa, green, purple, or a combination)
1 cup grated carrots
1/2 cup toasted, salted, shelled, peeled peanuts
For garnish (optional):
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
2 thinly sliced green onions or chives

Steps:

  • Prepare the dressing: Place peanut butter in a medium bowl. Add the vegetable oil and the toasted sesame oil and whisk until nicely smooth. Whisk in the seasoned rice vinegar and do a taste test. Depending on how you like your dressing, how salty your peanut butter is, how seasoned your rice vinegar is, you may want to add a little more vinegar, a little more sugar, or a little salt. (Makes about 3/4 cup of dressing.)
  • Toast the peanuts: Although the roasted peanuts from the store may already be cooked, you'll get even better flavor with just a little toasting. Heat a small skillet on medium high heat and add the nuts to the pan. Do not ignore or the nuts can easily burn. Stir a little with a wooden spoon until the peanuts begin to get browned in spots and you can smell the toasting aromas. Remove peanuts from pan to a dish.
  • Toss the salad together: In a large bowl, toss the sliced cabbage, grated carrots, and peanuts together, and any other optional garnishes, such as a little chopped cilantro or green onions. Right before serving, mix in the dressing.
