Number Of Ingredients 9

1 Chinese cabbage (wombok), or 1/2 a giant one ((Note 1))
100g/ 3.5oz Chang's crispy noodles ((store bought, the fine ones not chunky ones, Note 2))
5 green onions (, finely sliced on the diagonal)
100g/ 3.5oz slivered almonds
4 tbsp white vinegar ((just ordinary vinegar, nothing fancy!))
2 tbsp white sugar ((or brown))
2 tbsp soy sauce (, all purpose or light, NOT dark soy sauce)
2 tsp sesame oil (, toasted (brown, not yellow untoasted))
5 tbsp olive oil

Steps:

Toast almonds: Lightly toast the slivered almonds in a small skillet over medium heat until lightly browned (no oil). Remove immediately and let cool.
Dressing: Shake Dressing ingredients in a jar until sugar is dissolved. (This keeps for 3 weeks!)
Shred cabbage: Cut cabbage (see photos in post, helpful): cut 1 slit down the middle lengthwise (or 2, if it's giant like the one I used). Then finely slice so it's shredded. Just use the top 1/2 - 2/3, mostly leafy part. Reserve the thick crunchy white part for another use (excellent in stir fries!).
Toss everything except crispy noodles: Place cabbage in a big bowl with toasted almonds and green onions. Pour over Dressing, toss well.
Add crispy noodles! Toss through noodles just before serving so they stay crisp!

Time 12m

Yield 4 plates, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (100 g) packet fried Chinese noodles (Changs Original)
1/2-1 Chinese cabbage or 1/4 savoy cabbage, shredded finely
6 green onions, sliced to 4-5mm
100 g lightly roasted slivered almonds or 100 g pine nuts
1/4 cup white vinegar
1/4 cup caster sugar
1 tablespoon soy sauce
2 teaspoons sesame oil
1/2 cup olive oil

Steps:

Cut the cabbage in half, remove the thick white core section from the centre of each half. To do this, lay cabbage flat side down on the board and cut a "v" in the centre. Turn it over and ease the core out.
Using a large, sharp knife, cut the cabbage into very fine shreds, working from one end. Regular cabbage tends to have tighter leaves so its best to shred it into once piece. Hold the cabbage firmly with one hand and shave down one side.
Combine the sliced cabbage, chopped green onions and almonds in a salad bowl.
Add dressing to taste, and mix well. Add Original Fried Noodles to the salad just before serving.
