Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 head purple cabbage (thinly sliced or finely chopped)
  • 1/2 head white cabbage (thinly sliced or finely chopped)
  • 1/2 cup pickled onions
  • 1 red bell pepper (thinly sliced or finely chopped)
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh cilantro
  • 3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon sugar

Method
 

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the thinly sliced purple cabbage, white cabbage, pickled onions, red bell pepper, and fresh cilantro.
  2. In a separate small bowl, whisk together the 3 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar and 1 teaspoon of sugar until the sugar is fully dissolved.
  3. Pour the dressing evenly over the prepared slaw mixture in the large bowl.
  4. Toss all ingredients thoroughly for 1-2 minutes to ensure the cabbage and vegetables are well coated with the zesty dressing.

Notes

- For extra crunch, add a handful of toasted sesame seeds or chopped peanuts just before serving.
- Make this Asian slaw ahead of time: prepare the vegetables and dressing separately, then combine just before serving to maintain maximum crispness.
- If you prefer a creamier slaw, you can add a tablespoon of mayonnaise or Greek yogurt to the dressing.
