Korean Coleslaw Recipe for a Korean Cabbage Salad Side Dish
Our Korean coleslaw recipe makes a Korean cabbage salad that’s a little zingy, a little sweet, a little sour, and a lot crunchy. This Korean slaw is the perfect side dish for Korean barbecue, fried chicken and fried chicken burgers. We love to serve it with an array of Korean side dishes and small plates, such as meatballs, corn cheese and potato salad.
