Ingredients
- 3 cups cabbage diced, green or white
- 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon bouillon powder or can use dashi powder
- ¼ teaspoon garlic minced, possibly a little less if fresh
Instructions
- Remove outer layer of the cabbage then dice into roughly 1 inch (2.5cm) pieces, around bite-sized.
- Mix the dressing ingredients in a bowl or container - add the sesame oil, sesame seeds, salt, bouillon/dashi powder and garlic and mix together so everything is well combined. Add the chopped cabbage and toss well so all the pieces are well coated, then serve.
Notes
This is on the lighter side for the dressing, but you still get plenty flavor. Note fresh garlic can be pretty strong so go slightly less, if anything, compared to the volume stated. With ready-prepared garlic paste it is a little milder so you can use full amount.
