Step 1
Slice cabbage as thin as you can — use a mandoline if you have one. Toss into a large bowl.
Step 2
Add sprouts to the bowl. In a small dish, whisk sesame oil, rice vinegar, and minced ginger until combined.
Step 3
Pour dressing over the slaw and toss hard for 30 seconds — you want the cabbage to soften just slightly.
Step 4
Divide slaw between bowls or plates. Top with crispy shallots and sesame seeds. Serve immediately.
