Mustards Grill's curried slaw
Dear SOS: I recently dined at Mustards Grill in Napa. We had the most delicious crispy calamari with a curried slaw that was out of this world. I’m hoping you can get the recipe for the slaw. I would go there every day if I lived in the area. Thanks.

Dear Sarabeth: We loved the brightness and depth of flavor in this so-simple recipe. It works as a perfect side dish, whether you’re hosting a formal dinner or having the gang over to watch a little football.
Curry vinaigrette
In a medium bowl, whisk together the curry paste, mustard, lemon juice, vinegar, salt and pepper until the salt is dissolved, about 30 seconds. Gradually whisk in the olive oil, and continue to whisk until fully emulsified. This makes a scant cup of vinaigrette, which will keep for up to 3 days, covered and refrigerated.
Slaw and assembly
In a large bowl, toss together the cabbage, carrot and chile.
Stir the vinaigrette to make sure it is emulsified and toss the slaw with just enough to coat lightly; you may not use all of the vinaigrette. Place the slaw in a serving bowl or divide onto plates. Garnish the bowl or servings with the cilantro leaves and green onion.
