A fresh twist on the classic Changs-style wombok salad. With crisp noodles, crunchy cabbage and golden eggs, this easy dish is perfect for BBQs, picnics or quick weeknight dinners.

Ingredients

  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 2 tsp sesame oil
  • ¼ cup white vinegar
  • 1 tbsp light soy sauce
  • 1½ tbsp caster sugar
  • 100g packet Chang's Original Fried Noodles (reserve ¼ cup for garnish)
  • ½ (600g) Wombok cabbage, trimmed
  • ½ cup toasted flaked almonds
  • 6 spring onions, thinly sliced, extra to serve
  • 4 semi-firm boiled eggs, quartered (see tips)


Method

  1. To make dressing; combine all ingredients in a jug until sugar dissolves.
  2. Thinly slice or shred the cabbage and place in a large bowl. Add almonds, spring onions and fried noodles. Toss until combined.
  3. Just before serving pour 3/4 of the dressing over salad and toss until salad is fully coated.
  4. Arrange eggs amongst salad. Sprinkle with extra spring onions and remaining noodles. Serve drizzled with remaining dressing.


Tips & Hints

  1. To make a delicious meal add 300g shredded BBQ chicken or BBQ pork.
  2. Use a mandolin to slice cabbage evenly
  3. You can use toasted pinenuts instead of almonds if preferred
  4. To make semi-firm boiled eggs: Take a saucepan and half fill it with cold water from the tap. Gently lower the eggs into the saucepan. Place the pan over a medium heat. When the water reaches a simmer, start the timer so you can precisely time the cooking process. If you gently stir the eggs in a clockwise direction, the movement of the water will help centre the yolks. Simmer the eggs for 5 minutes for semi-firm yolks and hard whites. Use a large spoon to remove the eggs from the water. Cool the eggs by running them under cold tap water for 30-60 seconds or placing them in a bowl of iced water.
