    Step 8:

  • Cut the white cabbage into roughly 1-inch (2 cm) squares. Peel the rinsed carrots and cut them into thin matchsticks. Toss the cabbage and carrots with salt and let the mixture sit for about 20 minutes, until the cabbage releases its juice. Gently squeeze out the excess liquid, transfer the vegetables to a bowl, and season with vinegar and sugar to taste. Make a well in the center of the cabbage-carrot mixture and add the black and red pepper, ground coriander, chopped fresh cilantro, and garlic pushed through a press.
  • Separately, slice the onion into thin strips and fry it in a well-heated skillet with the vegetable oil until golden. Pour the hot onion and oil straight into the well in the cabbage, then toss the salad thoroughly. Chill it in the refrigerator for a few hours so the flavors have time to meld. Your Korean-style cabbage salad is ready — enjoy!
