Preparation Steps

  • To make the dressing, combine the olive oil, white vinegar, sugar, and soy sauce in a jar and shake well until the sugar has dissolved.
  • Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. While melting, crush the ramen noodles inside the package and discard the seasoning packet.
  • Add crushed noodles, slivered almonds, and sesame seeds to the melted butter. Sauté frequently stirring until golden brown, then remove from heat and let cool.
  • Shred the Napa cabbage and combine it with sliced green onions in a large bowl. Add the toasted noodle mixture and pour the dressing over the salad. Toss to combine well and serve immediately.

Notes

This salad is best served fresh but can be refrigerated for a few hours before serving. Add sunflower seeds for extra crunch if desired.
