Step by step recipe with photo

Peking salad is a Chinese dish, and it is traditionally prepared from white cabbage, and not from Peking, as is usually assumed. I think that if cabbage is not very juicy, this happens in winter on sale, then it is easier to use Peking cabbage - nothing bad will happen. This will not affect the taste in any way. And instead of pork, you can take chicken fillet.

They say that Chinese salt is important for this salad, and this is nothing more than monosodium glutamate, to which we have a bias in our country. And it is also very important to use sesame oil, there are no equivalent substitutes for it.

From my own experience, I will say in a whisper that for salad dressing you can take a ready-made dressing for Korean funchose, which is sold in soft bags. It already contains the right balance of acid, seasoned salt and oil. But you only need to take part of this dressing, adding a little soy sauce, garlic and pepper. Adjust everything to your liking, keeping the balance of acidity and pungency.

Or prepare the dressing yourself, mixing everything according to the recipe.

There is nothing difficult in preparing Peking salad. We will need all the products on the list.

Cut the meat into thin strips.

For the sauce, combine vinegar, garlic, red pepper, a pinch of sugar, soy sauce and a couple of tablespoons of sesame oil.

Fry the meat in a couple of tablespoons of sesame oil, season with salt and pepper.

Cut the cabbage into very thin strips. You can lightly crush it with your hands.

Cut carrots and cucumber (I have one large, you can take two) cut into thin strips or use a Korean grater. I always cut with a sharp knife.

Pour boiling water over the funchoza, as written on the package.

Peking salad can be served in a deep casserole or on a flat dish. Put the cabbage in the first layer, carrots on top.

Then - fresh cucumber. Layers can be alternated.

Then - a layer of funchose and fried meat. Pour the prepared dressing over the salad and sprinkle with green onions for beauty.

Peking salad is ready. If desired, you can mix it. Enjoy your meal!
