Equipment

  • knife and cutting board

Ingredients

  • 3 cups purple Cabbage shredded
  • 2 carrots julienned
  • Fresh herbs of your choice green onions, parsley or mint would be my preference
  • 5 tbsp mirin
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp lime juice
  • 3 tbsp peanut oil or olive oil
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup
  • 2-3 garlic cloves

Instructions

  • In a small bowl or jar, combine all the dressing ingredients – mirin, soy sauce, lime juice, peanut oil or olive oil, maple syrup, and minced garlic. Mix well until fully combined.
  • In a large bowl, combine the shredded green cabbage, purple cabbage, and julienned carrots.
  • Pour the prepared dressing over the salad ingredients in the mixing bowl.
  • Toss everything together until the salad is evenly coated with the dressing.
  • If you're not planning to eat it all at once, you can store the salad and dressing separately in airtight containers in the fridge for up to 4 days. Just make sure to combine them right before serving.
