Asian cole slaw

Posted by monicajane in Food, Recipes, Side Dishes on August 10th, 2009

I did this on the fly as I do most of my cooking. I set out to simply make a cole slaw, but as I was tasting it I wasn’t liking it and ginger, tamari and sesame oil found their way into this otherwise quite traditionally American dish.

coleslaw

1/4 large green cabbage

1 large carrot

6 green onions

3 tbls mayonnaise

2 tbls olive oil

2 tbls mustard with seeds

2 tbls packed grated ginger

1 tbls sesame oil

3 tbls tamari

I put all the veggies through the shredder in a food processor and then mixed up the rest of the ingredients with the veggies. It’s quite nice. This is actually quite a large amount of salad. The bowl is rather large. When you shred a cabbage it turns into a much larger quantity than you might imagine.

The flavor is distinctly Asian.

    Oooo, that sounds good. I never would have thought to use those in a cole slaw.
