Pickled Cabbage – Japanese style

Step 1

Wash and finely slice the cabbage and chilies and transfer them to a strong plastic bag and add the salt.  Rub the bag well so that the salt coats the cabbage and chilies.

Step 2

Put some weight on the bag and leave it for an hour.  After an hour, strain out all the liquid formed by pressing the cabbage by hand or in a sieve.  Transfer the cabbage to a small serving bowl.  Add some sesame seeds and soy sauce and serve it fresh. I also sprinkled some pepper as garnishing.

Step 3

Serve this salad with any main meal.
