Chinese Slaw with Miso Lime & Chilli Dressing
/I love Chinese Cabbage. I find it less "woody" than regular cabbage, which makes it easier to chop and easier to chomp!
This is a simple, clean salad with a dressing that is absolutely TO-DIE-FOR!! Seriously, I could DRINK the dressing! Sometimes I just make this salad as an excuse to have the dressing!!!
Ingredients
Slaw
1/2 a small-medium Chinese Cabbage, finely sliced

1 tablespoon black or white sesame seeds for garnish

Juice of 3 limes
1 red chilli, finely sliced
1 clove garlic, crushed
1 teaspoon sesame oil
