Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/4 cup (100g) cabbage (mix of white and red)
  • 1/2 (packed) cup (70g) carrot
  • 1/2 (packed) cup (70g) cucumber
  • 1 small spring onion
  • 1 garlic clove
Glaze
  • 2 tsp soy sauce
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 1 1/2 tbsp white rice vinegar (any kind is fine)
  • 1 tbsp cane sugar (or granulated sugar)
  • 1 tsp sesame seeds (you can add more or less)

Method
 

  1. The Prep: In a bowl finely shred the white and red cabbage using a grater or a shredder. Shred the carrot and cucumber, cut them into thin strips. Thinly slice the spring onion and mince the garlic.
  2. The Glaze: Add the cane sugar, soy sauce, sesame oil, and rice vinegar directly over the veggies. Sprinkle the sesame seeds on top.
  3. The Toss: Toss thoroughly until every vegetable is coated in the glossy glaze. Enjoy ;)
  4. Stellka’s Tip: Switch it up! Swap sesame seeds for crushed peanuts, or add chili or lime juice for extra flavor. It’s the perfect versatile base for any protein.
