Shrimp and Cabbage Slaw with Chili Sauce and Lime
Toss this colorful salad thoroughly before serving so that the crunchy shreds of cabbage are well coated with the tangy dressing. Lime juice, fish sauce and a little sugar give it a sweet-sour-salty kick. For a shortcut, use preshredded cabbage, available in the salad section of the supermarket.
