Asian Slaw
This recipe is from the cookbook “The Hollyhock Cooks” — it’s a great addition to the the salad theme.
Ingredients:
- 2 tbsp. sesame or peanut oil

- 2 tbsp. rice vinegar
- 1 tbsp. brown or white sugar
- 1 tsp. grated fresh ginger
- a pinch of chili flakes
- 4 C. shredded Asian cabbage such as su choy
- 1/2 C. dry-toasted peanuts
In a small bowl, whisk together the oil, vinegar, sugar, ginger and chili flakes. Dress the cabbage with this dressing and toss it with the peanuts.
Variation: Use a spicy chili oil instead of the sesame or peanut oil if you prefer more heat. Toss in some shredded purple cabbage for a brighter colour.
