Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons Asian sesame oil
  • 1/2 daikon (white radish), peeled and sliced thinly with a mandoline
  • 4 small or 2 medium carrots, sliced thinly into rounds with a mandoline
  • 5 green onions, white and light green part only, chopped
  • 1-2 tablespoons fresh chopped cilantro
  • sea salt and freshly ground pepper
  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds, garnish

Method

  1. In a small skillet, toast the sesame seeds, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned, about 2 minutes.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk the lemon juice, soy sauce, olive oil, and sesame oil until well combined.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the daikon, carrots, green onion and cilantro. Add the dressing, season with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Sprinkle with the sesame seeds and serve. Be sure to toss everything together just before serving to keep the vegetables crisp!
