directions
- Put cabbage, carrot and green onion in a large bowl.
- For dressing. Whisk together all dressing ingredients. Pour over cabbage mixture and toss well to coat. Taste, and adjust salt, if you feel more is necessary.
- Cover and refrigerate for several hours or overnight to marry flavours. Toss again before serving to redistribute dressing.
- Note: By 'cleaned weight' for the Napa Cabbage, I mean the weight once the stalk and outer leaves have been removed. I started off with a Napa Cabbage that weighed approximately 1 1/2 lbs.

The flavor of this is gorgeous! This is very different from my usual slaw. The tart and sweet flavors complement each other nicely, and the dressing is very rich. I used a vegetable peeler to slice the carrots in thin strips instead of shredding them, for a little more color and crunch. Good use of the contest ingredients.

OK, here goes. I live in Athens, Greece. I moved out here many, many years ago from Ottawa, Canada - so I am blessed in having two wonderful heritages!
I suffer from compulsive obsessive behaviour with regard to food and my psychiatrist thought it would be a good idea to find a 'society' where many have the same problem and try to find a cure.
So far, I've copied a couple of thousand recipes from this site and my psychiatrist has thrown the towel in and refuses to answer the phone when I call.
What did I do wrong?
Got 3 kids that keep me on the go - 10 and under at this point (2008) - I may not get round to updating this for a few years, so you'll have to do your own maths.
I teach English full-time and Greek Cookery part-time. I would like to make the cooking part of it full-time and the English Grammar part of it part-time.
That's all for now.
