Kewpie coleslaw

This Japanese-inspired coleslaw is wonderfully crunchy, with the nutty flavour of sesame and a little richness from Japan’s favourite mayo, Kewpie. It’s excellent on its own or stuffed into burgers. It also makes a great topper for a plate of dumplings for those last-minute dinners!
