Asian Cole Slaw
cups shredded napa cabbage
1 cup carrots, finely julienned
1/2 cup snow peas, finely julienned
1/2 cup red bell pepper, finely julienned
1/3 cup chopped scallions
1/4 cup finely chopped cilantro
1 tablespoon minced ginger
3 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon lime juice
2 teaspoons sesame oil
1/2 tablespoon brown sugar
2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds
Place the cabbage, carrots, snow peas, bell pepper, scallions, and cilantro in a
large mixing bowl.
In a small bowl, mix together the ginger, rice wine vinegar, soy sauce, lime
juice, sesame oil, hot chili paste, and sugar. Whisk until the sugar has
dissolved. Pour the dressing over the vegetables and toss to mix evenly.
Let sit for about 30 minutes, tossing occasionally, to allow the vegetables to
absorb the flavors of the dressing.
Serve, garnished with the sesame seeds or peanuts.
