Instructions
For the salad
Wash all the vegetables and herbs thoroughly.
Shred the cabbage finely with a mandolin or a sharp knife.
Grate or julienne the carrots finely.
Chop the cilantro(coriander) finely
For the Sauce
Whisk everything together until well combined.
To assemble and serve
Mix the sauce into the vegetables making sure it's all well mixed in. You could bruise the vegetables a bit to make sure the sauce mixes in nicely.
Let it stand for a few minutes to macerate so the cabbage release a bit of juice.
Serve with a few lime wedges, fresh cilantro(coriander) and toasted sesame seeds.
Notes
Make this coleslaw vegan by using a vegan mayonnaise or omitting completely
If you are allergic to sesame then skip the tahini, sesame oil and sesame seeds.
Use this coleslaw with pulled pork tacos, smoked beef brisket, and as burger topping.
You could add sliced apples, raisins, curry powder, toasted almond flakes or pumpkin seeds to jazz it up even more.
To make a complete omnivore salad, add some hot smoked salmon, grilled chicken or fried strips of steak.
