Cabbage salad is not necessarily like coleslaw. The hard & crunchy texture can be softened by cooking slightly. This salad needs to be served straight away after mixing because the toasted 'Nori' flavour will be lost quickly.

Steps

1

Wash Cabbage and cut into 4 to 5cm pieces. Cook in salted water quickly and cool. Drain and squeeze to remove water. (Do Not over cook!) Slice Cucumber very thinly.
2

Make dressing by mixing all ingredients.
3

Toast Nori sheets over a gas flame carefully not burning it. It can be done very quickly. Nori turns greenish colour and very aromatic. Even though you are using already toasted Nori, I recommend to do this. Tear Nori sheets into same size as Cabbage pieces.
4

Add dressing to the Cabbage and Cucumber and mix well, then add Nori and quickly combine and serve.
