Pork and cabbage Asian salad

 Had this last week and it was almost very shelf stable.  I don't like red bell pepper so I think I'm going to skip it next time.


From Paleo OMG

For the salad-

1/2 small red cabbage shredded

1/2 small Napa cabbage shredded

3-4 carrots, cut into matchsticks

3-4 scallions, thinly sliced

1/4 cup chopped cilantro

2 tbs chopped fresh mint

thinly sliced red bell pepper if you want it

For the pork-

1 lbs ground or finely diced pork*

1/2 cup soy, tamari or coconut aminos

1-2 tbs sriracha 

For the dressing-

1/3 cup nut butter

1/3 cup water

3 tbs soy or tamari or aminos

1 tbs sesame oil

2 tbs vegetable or avocado oil

1 tbs honey

1 tbs vinegar

1 tbs sriracha

pinch of salt


Combine all the salad ingredients in a large bowl

Cook the pork with a pinch of salt in a large cast iron pan until almost all done

In a sauce pan, combine the soy and sriracha and cook 4-5 minutes until bubbly and reduced

Add to the pork and cook until the pork is coated in sauce

For the dressing, combine everything and pulse in a food processor


So serve, heat up the pork (if it's from the fridge) and then top with salad and dressing, adding sesame seeds as garnish

Eat with chopsticks because everything Paleo tastes better with chopsticks


*We couldn't find ground pork so we got a small loin and just chopped it finely by hand.  The different sizes was nice to eat, will probably do it this way again.
