Ingredients

Sesame seeds
Baby cabbage
Ginger
Lime
Honey
Soy Sauce
Pork Rashers

Instructions

Follow the steps below. Watch out for the surprise ingredients . I was tossing this together as I went so a few didn't make it into this photo
Remember those rashers we grilled on the braai? Slice into bite size pieces
Pork Rashers
Bloom white sesame seeds in pan ( fancy word for bringing out the flavours) I also call it dry fry. We are going to need about 2-3 Tbls. Keep the rest in the fridge and add to green beans or salads
Notice the colour changes to golden brown after blooming
Finely chop half baby cabbage as well as the stalk of celery and handful of coriander. Place into a bowl
Grate about 4cm of ginger or less
Finely zest the lime add to the cabbage mix
Add the rashers to a dry pan and cook to brown
Add 1 Tbls creamed honey (or regular) 2 Tbls soy sauce and finely chopped garlic to the rashers pan.
Garlic in 2 Tbls soy sauce
Nicely browned rashers before sauce is added
Suddenly thought a pinch of Chinese 5 spice could pop these rashers. Optional not essential. Adds to flavour authenticity though if you have it use it
Now add the honey garlic soy sauce mix
Stir to coat the rashers once coated remove from heat to avoid burning them.
Sprinkle 1 Tbls over honeyed rashers
Back to salad- make dressing with 1tsp honey, 2 Tbls of Ponzu (soy also works), 2 finely chopped chilli, chopped stems of coriander, squeeze of lime and the grated ginger you prepared earlier. Add 2 Tbls water and 1 Tbls of sesame seed oil ( yes I know another surprise ingredient)

Delicious Crispy pork rashers coated in sesame seeds and honey are irrisitable
Mix all the salad stuff together. Add the salad dressing tablespoon at a time. Here was where I thought the sesame seed oil needed to be added. I glugged it directly into the salad after adding the dressing. It should be added to the dressing ideally
. Worth it though
Serve together and enjoy with a cider or beer. It's a very spicy dish. Half the chilli and ginger to tone it down. I love spices so it works gor me. You do YOU . This salad can also be stir fried and add fluffy rice to feed a big family.
