This Asian slaw has become a regular at my dinner table because it is so crisp and refreshing. It is packed with crunchy vegetables and tossed in a creamy, tangy dressing that everyone seems to love.

I find that this salad tastes best if you let it sit for about twenty minutes before serving. This allows the cabbage to soften just a little while soaking up all those delicious flavors from the dressing.

Ingredients

  • 4 cups shredded green cabbage
  • 2 cups shredded purple cabbage
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 1/2 cup thinly sliced green onions
  • 1/2 cup chopped cilantro
  • 1/3 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
  • 1 clove garlic, minced

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the green cabbage, purple cabbage, carrots, green onions, and cilantro.

  2. 2

    In a separate small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, rice vinegar, soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, and minced garlic until smooth.

  3. 3

    Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture.

  4. 4

    Toss everything together until the vegetables are evenly coated.

  5. 5

    Let the slaw sit for twenty minutes in the refrigerator before serving to help the flavors blend together.

💡 Tips

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days. This slaw is excellent served alongside grilled chicken or fish for a light and healthy dinner.
