Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups (shredded) Green cabbage
- 2 cups (shredded) Purple cabbage
- 1 cup (shredded) Carrots
- 4 stalks, thinly sliced Green onions
- 1 pack (3 oz) Ramen noodles (uncooked)
- 1 cup Slivered almonds
- 2 tablespoons Sesame seeds
- 0.25 cup Vegetable oil
- 3 tablespoons Rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Shred the green cabbage and purple cabbage into thin strips, and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Add the shredded carrots and sliced green onions to the bowl with the cabbage.
Crush the ramen noodles into small pieces, discarding the seasoning packet. Set the crushed noodles aside.
In a dry skillet over medium heat, lightly toast the slivered almonds and sesame seeds until golden and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes. Stir frequently to prevent burning. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
In a small bowl or jar, whisk together vegetable oil, rice vinegar, soy sauce, granulated sugar, salt, and black pepper to make the dressing.
Just before serving, add the crushed ramen noodles, toasted almonds, and sesame seeds to the salad mixture.
Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss everything to combine evenly.
Serve immediately for the best crunch, or refrigerate for up to 30 minutes if needed. Enjoy!
