Ingredients
 

Slaw

  • ½ small head (250 g) white cabbage around 9 oz
  • ½ small head (250 g) red cabbage around 9 oz
  • 2 carrot grated
  • 1 bunch (20 g) cilantro finely chopped
  • 2 scallion sliced
  • 1 chili pepper seeded & sliced
  • cup (100 g) cashew nuts toasted & chopped
  • 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds

Dressing

Instructions
 

  • Roughly chop cashew nuts and toast them for 5 minutes in a skillet without oil until golden brown.
  • Finely slice white and red cabbage using a knife. Add the sliced cabbage together with the carrot, cilantro, scallion, chili, cashew nuts, and sesame seeds in a large bowl.
  • Combine all of the dressing ingredients in a glass jar and shake well or whisk them together in a small bowl.
  • Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss to combine!

Notes

Miso paste: If you don't have miso paste at home, simply season the dressing with a pinch of salt. Miso paste does add an umami flavor, but it's not necessary to buy a jar just for this one recipe.
Creamy Dressing: If you like a creamy dressing, add 2 tablespoons of mayo or peanut butter. 
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
