Thai Cabbage Salad

This was one of my favorite finds over the summer--reminded me a little of somtum, minus the fish sauce :) Serve with grilled chicken and you have a great summer dinner. Ahhh, summer...where have you gone?

Thai Cabbage Salad

1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon sugar
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
4 cups finely shredded Napa cabbage
1/2 small red onion, sliced thin
1/2 cup grated carrot
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh mint leaves
2 tablespoons chopped fresh coriander
1 tablespoon vegetable oil

In a bowl stir together the lemon juice, the sugar, and the salt, sesame oil, rice vinegar until the sugar and salt are dissolved.
Add cabbage, onion, carrot, mint, coriander, and the oil, and toss the salad well.
