Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups (shredded) Green cabbage
- 2 cups (shredded) Red cabbage
- 1 cup (shredded) Carrots
- 4 stalks (sliced thin) Green onions
- 2 packets Instant ramen noodles (uncooked)
- 1 cup Sliced almonds
- 2 tablespoons Sesame seeds
- 1 cup Olive oil
- 1 cup Rice vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded green cabbage, red cabbage, carrots, and sliced green onions. Toss to mix evenly.
Crush the uncooked ramen noodles into small pieces. Set the seasoning packets aside for another use (e.g., soup or stock).
In a dry skillet over medium heat, toast the crushed ramen noodles, sliced almonds, and sesame seeds until golden brown and fragrant, stirring frequently to prevent burning (about 5 minutes). Remove from heat and let cool.
In a small bowl or jar, whisk together the olive oil, rice vinegar, soy sauce, sugar, salt, and black pepper until the sugar dissolves and the dressing is well combined.
Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture and toss to coat everything evenly.
Add the toasted ramen mixture to the salad just before serving to maintain its crunch. Toss gently to combine.
Serve immediately and enjoy this crunchy, tangy, and refreshing salad!
