oriental coleslaw

Oriental Coleslaw

November 2, 2014 by sblades Leave a Comment

With the holidays coming up, I want to get back to my family cookbook recipes since most of them can be made successfully for parties or potluck gatherings.

Besides, it’s fun going through the cookbook and fondly remembering the recipes my mother and sisters have made.

Different styles of oriental coleslaw pop up occasionally at family get-togethers and I really like the dressing on this Oriental Coleslaw.
It’s tangy, sweet, and a little salty and doesn’t overpower the salad.

Oriental Cole Slaw Bowl

This tasty recipe comes from my sister, Glenda, and I can’t believe I haven’t tried it till now.

Of course I waited until Bret (aka the onion-hater) was out of town since this has green onions in it and I don’t think it would be good without them.

It’s been fun filling my plate with tiny girly croissant sandwiches and salads while he’s gone!

Oriental Cole Slaw Plate

Easy, fresh and crunchy, with the addition of coleslaw, green onions, sunflower seeds and noodles.  This Oriental Coleslaw is great for a side salad with any meal.  Throw in some chopped cooked chicken and make it a meal in itself!

Just a note:  you want to make sure it gets eaten within a day or so of making it so the noodles don’t get soggy. I really have been enjoying this one.

If you like coleslaw, you may also like my Apple Bacon Coleslaw recipe.

Jeff's Oriental Coleslaw

Yield: 6-8
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 1 hour
Total Time: 1 hour 10 minutes

Crispy, crunchy, sweet, salty and tangy! Simple to throw together.

Ingredients

  • 1 pkg. coleslaw mix
  • 1 bunch green onions, , chopped (about 2 tbsp. or to taste)
  • 1 pkg. shelled sunflower seeds
  • 1/2 can rice noodles, (about 1 1/2 cups full)
  • Dressing:
  • 2 1/2 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1/4 C vegetable oil
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Combine coleslaw ingredients in a medium bowl.  
  2. Whisk the dressing ingredients in a small bowl until well blended, and pour over the coleslaw mixture.  
  3. Toss and chill for about 1 hour before serving.

Notes

Tips and Stuff:

I added a small package (about 2 oz.) of slivered almonds for extra crunch.

If you can't find rice noodles, use one package of ramen noodles, crushed by hand.

I used apple cider vinegar and canola oil because that's what I had.

If you're not going to serve this until the next day, go ahead and combine coleslaw ingredients (except for the noodles) together and chill overnight - then wait to add the dressing and noodles about an hour before serving.
