Oriental Coleslaw

Bit of a misnomer, this one. It's nothing like shop-bought coleslaw and isn't exactly oriental. It's more like a hot and sweet pickled vegetable salad but that doesn't quite have the same ring to it.

Ingredients:

For the salad:

1 pak-choi - very finely shredded
1 large carrot - peeled and cut into fine matchsticks
6 spring onions - very finely sliced
½ cucumber - peeled, deseeded and cut into fine matchsticks
2 tspn toasted sesame seeds
a handful of beansprouts

For the dressing:

1 tblspn sweet sherry
1 tblspn soy sauce
1 small red chilli - seeds removed and very finely sliced
1 tblspn runny honey
1 tspn pickled ginger - finely chopped


Method:

Simply whisk the dressing ingredients together, add the other ingredients and gently mix.
