Thai Slaw Salad

Really an outstanding thai slaw, with few modifications on the second go to suit our tastes. I used more vinegar and honey, and fish sauce instead of soy. The basil on top was ok, but mint and coriander would go well, too. Handful of peanuts topped it off nicely. Happy now.

Made this as a side dish with grilled salmon and topped it with sunflower seeds for added crunch as I didn't have any sesame seeds. They put it over the top. DS raved about it and even the guests who "didn't like coleslaw" ate three helpings.

This was outstanding! I made a couple of changes and substitutions: I used white vinegar instead of rice vinegar, used 1 T. sesame oil and 1 T canola oil, and added 1 t ginger paste. I also used chopped cilantro instead of basil. The flavor was so good and I'll be making this again soon. The family loved it as well. Very nice addition to grilled meats.

Love Love this recipe. Light & refreshing with great flavour. The fresh basil is a must. The only thing I added was a handful of peanuts on top for some more crunch. I know I will making this all summer long. Delish!

I only made the dressing and added some melted peanut butter and a shot of fish sauce. Super fast, super easy, many uses. I'll come again to make the whole salad.

Made this again with sugar snap peas in place of the cumumber and served with Thai shrimpcakes. Delicious. I made half a recipe but this was great. Loved the flavors. I served with Thai-Style Ground Beef.

Wonderful and refreshing salad. My only reason for giving the recipe 4 stars instead of 5 was the fresh basil. I made the salad minus the basil about 2 hours ahead of time. Didn't want to add it till the end, to keep the fresh flavor. However, I tried the salad before adding the basil and think I liked it better without. I love fresh basil but for my taste it didn't work. But it was delicious and will make this salad again and again. Thank you for posting.

Yummy! Paired with some Pad Thai for a great veggie meal. I'm not a cabbage fan, so I am always looking for a good way to work this veggie into our diet. Great light flavor that is melded well. I used less honey by about 1/2 Tbsp since we don't like things too sweet. Thanks so much for posting!

We all loved this recipe. The cucumber made this dish and the dressing was wonderful. We will be making this again.

sooooo good i just ate almost half of it! because i was very distracted in the store, i grabbed a bag of broccoli coleslaw instead of the reg kind, which does work but next time i make this i'll use cabbage. this will be perfect to bring for lunch. thanks for the recipe.

We all thought this was wonderful. Everyone wanted the recipe. I made this just as the recipe said; but I would add that if you don't think you will eat it all in one sitting, only put part of the dressing on part of the salad, as it is not as good the second day.

O-kay, I have a confession. When the salad is all eaten up, I keep adding shredded cabbage to the dressing to stretch it out! This is SO good and really addictive. The other day I made some to have with our dinner, and I ate almost all of it before family came home from school/work. That is when the adding more cabbage really came in handy - shhhhh. Thanks katin in the UP, this is serious yum!

I followed this recipe to the "T" and it was wonderful. I made it for a family potluck and was asked by everyone for the recipe. The dressing was right on and it was such a nice change from the usual mayo salads.

Dh and I liked this a lot. I didn't have red pepper so I left it out. I thinly sliced the cucumbers and then cut them into small strips which allowed more in every bite! Instead of toasted sesame seeds, I used ramen noodles. The dressing was very good and had the sesame taste from the oil. Thanks!

Thanks for posting this. I remembered it from RR's 30 Minute Meals, but couldn't find it on the Food Network website. I like making this for potlucks.

WOW - served this with company on Christmas eve - beautiful presentation and great flavors. I used Napa cabbage instead of bagged as we don't get it in Europe. Also was short on basil but had some. Loved the flavors and the left overs were really good the next day - even though it had the dressing on it. Will definitely make again. Thanks.
