Asian Confetti Slaw
- 1/4 cup toasted sesame oil
- 3 small sweet potatoes (about 1 1/2 pounds), cubed
- 1/2 pound mushrooms of choice, sliced
- 1/4 cup rice vinegar
- 2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
- 1/2 head purple cabbage (about 1 pounds), shredded
- 2 medium carrots, peeled and cut into fine strips
- 1 cup fresh cilantro, roughly chopped
- 1/2 cup fresh mint, roughly chopped
- 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
- juice of 1 lemon (optional)
- In a large skillet, heat sesame oil over medium-high heat until just hot. Add sweet potato and saute, stirring occasionally, until golden and fork tender (about 12 minutes). Using a slotted spoon, transfer potatoes to paper towel lined plate to cool, ensuring the majority of oil remains in skillet.
- Add mushrooms to skillet and continue to saute until mushrooms are just cooked through and crispy (an additional 4-5 minutes). Stir in rice vinegar and soy sauce, remove from heat and allow to cool to room temperature.
- Once cooled, in a large serving bowl toss sweet potato, mushrooms with all liquids, cabbage, carrots, cilantro, and mint. Top with sesame seeds and lemon juice.
