Method

  1. 1

    Cut all the vegetables lengthwise — cabbage, onion, carrot, capsicum and tomato.

    In a small bowl, whisk olive oil, Schezwan sauce, capsico, ketchup, lemon juice and salt.

  3. 3

    Toss the cut vegetables in the dressing. Rest in the fridge for 30 minutes — they'll soften slightly and pick up the dressing.

    Serve cold as a side with sheesh taouk, falafel or grilled vegetables.
