This is the second round of @progressivechef's #Steemit-ironchef. This week's theme is the humble CARROT. I am reallly enjoying these challenges, and really am trying to only use my own original recipes. This is my favourite salad to serve at barbeques, and with my Jerk Chicken


I invented this Asian inspired coleslaw when @morkrock and I were running a restaurant a few years ago. This was a side for the tacos and burgers that were on the menu.


INGREDIENTS

  • 1,5 cups mayonnaise
  • 4 medium carrots, peeled
  • 1/2 small red cabbage
  • 250g salted peanuts
  • bunch coriander
  • 2 T garam masala curry powder
  • 2 T soy sauce
  • 1 t sesame seed oil
  • 1 t cinnamon
  • 1 T brown sugar

METHOD

In a small bowl, mix the mayo with the sesame seed oil, soy sauce, garam masala, cinnamon and brown sugar. This will all come down to personal taste, but i like to this dressing to have a sweet, nutty, aromatic flavour.

Chop the coriander very finely, then grate the carrots and slice up the red cabbage. Combine in your serving bowl and dress with a bit of mayo. Add your peanuts and a squeeze of lemon.

Enjoy this delicious salad, and please let me know if you try it!

Yesss! @princessmewmew is here again! Wow I never knew that you used to run a restaurant before, that's nice my friend!
Lovely take on the coleslaw here with the sesame oil, soy sauce, garam masala, cinnamon and brown sugar added in the mayo!
I used to add sesame oil and wasabi in mayo in the past!
Thanks so much for entering again in steemit iron chef!
@progressivechef

Ooh, gurl I love wasabi, sounds like a great combo!

I'm reallly enjoying the challenge! Thank you for inviting me x

I knew you were a pro cook!! =D

This is so colourful..garam masala curry powder, brown sugar, and cinnamon in your sauce..I have to like this one just for that cool combo alone =P

Hehehe! I try. Definitely not a PRO

Yes, the crumbly, crunchy brown sugar adds a lovely texture and sweetness to an otherwise quite acidic dressing. The warm roundness of the garam masala loves the sugar too :)

Thank you for your vote!

'The warm roundness of the garam masala loves the sugar'

That's so poetic!! I love how you describe it! =DD It's a pleasure to vote for your beautiful creation <3

Ah you are so kind! Hopefully I can convey my passion for food with my passion for language πŸ’“

Looks delicious! I love a good spicy jerk chicken and I could see this being the perfect compliment.

They do together well! 😊Thanks for checking out my post

Oh wow, that sounds awesome!!! Ahhh, so you also come from the old restaurant industry :):) Gona give that salad a bash sometime, perhaps with my next braai :)

It's perfect with some lekker tjops 🌸

You ran a restaurant?? It must have been such an honor to eat there :) I love your cooking style! This looks super delicious!

Yeah we did! It was really fun, but the area was bad, so we closed ☹️

Ouh that's a pity :( maybe someday some other beautiful opportunity will come along!

I do miss it, but my dream is to have a sweet little boutique hotel, somewhere in Cape Town.

If you believe in it hard enough it will come true. I am sure of it!

That sounds like a line out of Peter Pan πŸ’“

Thanks for the encouragemebt
