Asian slaw is tangy and delicious and perfect served with pulled pork, on top of grilled sausage, or all by itself. Come on in and get the recipe for this tasty side dish.
Nothing says summer more than cool salads made up of crisp veggies; and sure, a little bacon never hurt anyone! This is the perfect salad to bring to a summer barbeque or potluck, and even better for at home dinners when all you want is to be outside grilling steaks. It’s the perfect side dish to grilled meats and fish, as well as perfect sitting on top of a juicy burger. When OXO sent me their Handheld Mandoline to review, I knew I wanted to create a dish that not only was a perfect showcase of the tool, but would be perfect for the season as well. And what better timing was the #SliceItUp Recipe Contest, which this recipe is being entered in so wish me luck!
The OXO Handheld Mandoline, honestly has become my go to tool lately. Even for snack time I thinly slice my fruit just for fun (and it looks pretty!) Fruit Carpaccio anyone? It’s dishwasher safe, which I love and the blade is super sharp, but here are the official feature from the OXO website.
- Adjustable for slices in 3 thicknesses
- Clear surface shows slices below
- Slice on cutting board or plate or hook over a bowl
- Food holder protects hands and covers blade when not in use
- Non-slip handle, knob and foot
- Dishwasher safe
- 4 strips of bacon
- ¼ red cabbage
- 2 small carrots
- 4 small radishes
- 2 tablespoons black sesame seeds
- 2 tablespoons white sesame seeds
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon dark soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Sriracha
- salt & pepper to taste
- Chop bacon into 1 inch pieces and cook over medium heat until crispy. Drain and reserve.
- Using the OXO Handheld Mandoline, slice cabbage.
- Radishes are to be sliced using the mandoline and then stack them up! Using your knife, make swift, thin slices. You have radish matchsticks now!
- Carrots are to be peeled and the placed against the cutting board. Pull peeler along as if you were making ribbons. Toss cabbage, carrots, and radishes with sesame seeds.
- Make dressing by whisking all of the ingredients together. Pour over vegetables and add bacon. Toss and serve!

I would use the mandolin to make a potato galette. Perfect, evenly sliced sweet potatoes and apples with a sprinkle of cinnamon and sugar cooked to a nice crisp.

I’d make cucumber salad.
I have just started making my shih tzus homemade treats and I would make them sweet potato and chicken and sweet potato and apple treats!

I have wanted a mandolin for a long time but always found them quite pricey. The first thing I would probably make would be some homemade potato chips from some exotic potatoes. The tool seems very versatile, something used almost every day, especially in the summer when the garden begins to produce. Thanks for the opportunity to win one of these awesome gadgets.

Great giveaway! Your asian slaw looks delicious, too. I’d probably make scalloped potatoes with the mandoline if I won! It looks like a great tool, and my version is in dire need of replacement.
Thanks, Marnely!
Mandoline or not – your matchsticks are perfect. Awesomely rockin’ knife skills, ma’am!
I have been seeing these mandolines all over the place and now I want one, too! I’d probably use one for the 8 million zucchini recipes I make in the summer.

Nelly! What a colorful and beautiful slaw! Hope you win the contest, missy! Also, I just read an article yesterday about how good for you black sesame seeds are, so double yay! I have never owned a mandoline. Ever. Sigh. If I owned one, I’d make potato chips a lot more frequently:)
I could think of a dozen ways to use the XOX mandolin!!!! But, I am definatly trying this slaw recipe!!!!

I don’t own a mandoline (they’re sort of scary and intimidating) but I would love to own one and learn to master the use of it without losing tips of fingers and things! I’d probably use it first to make marinated cucumbers!

I’d slice red cabbage, for red cabbage and apple slaw.

Lastly, the slaw looks fantastic–and so quick to put together, especially with the mandoline! I’d make that second.

Probably start with thinly sliced fruit for a tart! I adore OXO things. They’re always my first choice in kitchen gadgets.
I used my mandolin tonight to slice potatos for dauphinoise. Everyone should have a mandolin!
Love your slaw, it looks so cool!

Gosh, the question really is what wouldn’t I make if I won? The obvious answer for me is sweet & sour slaw to go with my pulled pork!
