Servings: persons

2 teaspoons Chinese sesame oil
3 cups baby carrots
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons unseasoned rice vinegar
2 tablespoon honey
2 teaspoons sesame tahini
1 large clove garlic, minced
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
3 cups chopped onion
6 cups chopped napa or savoy cabbage
Freshly ground black pepper

1
Mix the tahini from the bottom of the container before using it, so it will be smooth enough to blend into the sauce and effectively coat the carrots.
2
Heat a nonstick wok or a large, deep nonstick skillet, and add the sesame oil, carrots, and 1/2 teaspoon of the salt.
3
Stir-fry over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes.
4
Cover, and cook for another 5 minutes.
5
Turn the heat down to medium, and add the vinegar.
6
Cover again, and cook for an additional 5 minutes.
7
Stir in the honey, tahini, and garlic, and cook uncovered, stirring frequently, for 5 to 8 more minutes, or until the carrots are tender and starting to brown.
8
At the same time, heat a second non-stick wok or skillet, and add the vegetable oil, the onion, and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt.
9
Stir-fry over medium heat for 10 minutes, then add the cabbage.
10
Keep the heat high, and stir-fry another 5 minutes or so, or until the cabbage wilts.
11
(It will still be slightly crunchy.)
12
Transfer to a serving platter.
13
Spoon the carrots on top of the cabbage.
14
Grind some black pepper over the top, and serve hot, warm, or at room temperature.
