Instructions

Make Asian dressing for the slaw by adding freshly grated ginger, minced garlic, vegetable oil, toasted sesame oil, rice wine vinegar, soy sauce, oyster sauce, and a pinch of salt in a jar. Close the lid of the jar tight, and shake well.
To a large salad mixing bowl add shredded red cabbage, green cabbage, shredded carrot, bean sprout, fresh cilantro, and mint leaves.
Pour dressing on top of the salad.
Add in toasted peanuts, and green onion.
Toss everything well.
Let the slaw sit for 10 minutes so vegetables can soak up the dressing. Like traditional slaw, Asian coleslaw tastes great when served chilled.
Just before serving garnish with more green onion, sesame seeds, and extra peanuts for added crunch.
