Asian Style Coleslaw

Fiona Staunton • July 4, 2025

This is a crunchy, tasty salad I love to serve with fish tacos

The coleslaw keeps very well for a few days if you only dress it as you need it, just cover it in damp kitchen paper and store it in the fridge.


Serves 4 people, Prep 20 mins


Ingredients

4 carrots grated

1/4 white cabbage shredded

1⁄4 red cabbage shredded

1 courgette grated

2 long red peppers thinly sliced

100g mangetout sliced

3 scallions, thinly sliced

.

Dressing- mix in a jar

30ml apple cider vinegar

90ml extra virgin olive oil

1 lime, zest & juice

1 tbsp chili oil

1 tsp fish sauce

1 tbsp honey

1 tbsp sesame oil

thumb piece ginger, finely grated

2 tsp salt



Method:

  • Prepare the vegetables, cover with wet kitchen paper but don’t dress it until you want to eat it, that way it will stay fresh in the fridge for days.
  • Make the dressing by shaking all the ingredients in a jar, dress as needed.

Variations


I love it topped with chopped salted peanuts!



Enjoy!
