A riff on the cabbage slaw traditionally served withtonkatsu, this salad goes the extra flavor mile with lots of fresh herbs, crunchy vegetables, and a tangy Thai-inspired dressing.

Preparation

Make the salad:

In a large bowl, combine the mesclun, lettuce, cabbage, basil, mint, cilantro, scallions, tomatoes, onion, and bell pepper.

Make the dressing:

In a small bowl, whisk the lime juice, honey, fish sauce, garlic, and chile, if using. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Just before serving, toss the salad mixture with just enough of the dressing to coat the salad lightly—you may not need all of the dressing.

Make Ahead Tips

You can combine, cover, and refrigerate the salad ingredients up to 6 hours ahead. The dressing can be made up to 1 day ahead.

Great dressing recipe! Easy to make. Looking forward to preparing the whole menu. Definitely would not make this for Christmas dinner!

This salad is as advertised - fresh herbs! Made this for Xmas dinner and some people hated it, some said strong and pungent and some others ate it but didn't rave. It has a very strong flavor and if you like eating "raw" herbs, this is for you!
