Asian Coleslaw-(with Ramen Noodles) image

This salad is a great accompaniment to grilled/bbq meats, or to bring to a pot luck. The taste is a unique balance of toasty-nutty, sweet, and sour.

Number Of Ingredients 11

COLESLAW MIX
10-12 oz cole slaw mix or 1/2 small head cabbage and 1 carrot shredded.
1 pkg nissan or maruchan ramen noodles (chicken or oriental flavor) soup/seasoning packet reserved
3-4 stick green onions-scallions
4 oz almonds, sliced or slivered-toasted
1/4 c sesame seeds-toasted
DRESSING
1/4 c vegetable oil
1/4 c sugar
1/4 c vinegar
1 pkg soup/seasoning packet from ramen noodles

Steps:

  • 1. TOAST ALMONDS AND SESAME SEEDS: Heat oven to 350. Place almonds and sesame seeds separately into pie pans/cake pans. Bake for 5-7 minutes just until light golden. Take care to not burn them...keep close watch after 5 minutes. Allow to cool to room temperature.
  • 2. Slice green onions thinly. Prep cabbage/carrot if not using coleslaw mix. Remove soup/seasoning packet from noodles and reserve. Break noodles into small pieces. (I use a gallon size zip bag and break up by hand)
  • 3. In a mixing cup with a small fork or small whisk, measure oil, vinegar, sugar, and soup/seasoning packet and combine.
  • 4. COMBINE INGREDIENTS: Place coleslaw mix into bowl, mix in nuts/seeds, green onions and broken ramen noodles. Pour dressing over and refrigerate 30 minutes before serving.
