Ingredients
Equipment
Method
- Break the dry ramen noodles into bite-sized pieces. Toast them in a dry skillet over medium heat until golden and fragrant for the signature crunch of crunchy ramen salad.
- In a large bowl combine shredded green cabbage, purple cabbage and sliced green onions. Add toasted almonds and sesame seeds.
- In a small bowl whisk neutral oil, rice vinegar, soy sauce, sugar and sesame oil until the dressing looks glossy and balanced.
- Add the toasted noodles to the bowl just before serving. Pour dressing over the salad and toss until everything is evenly coated like a classic Asian cabbage noodle salad.
- Serve immediately for maximum crunch or chill briefly for a slightly softer texture.
Notes
Add toasted noodles right before serving to keep them crisp and prevent the dressing from softening the texture.
