2 T sesame oil
1 T soya sauce
1 t treacle sugar
1 red cabbage, very thinly sliced
½ bulb fennel, very thinly sliced
2 red apples, cut into matchsticks

Cook's note: I always crave something fresh, colourful and crunchy when I’ve eaten too much rich food. Asian-inspired dishes are my go-to – they’re simple, nutritious and delicious
