Dressing
2 tablespoons lemon juice
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 teaspoon soy sauce

Dressing: Whisk all the ingredients together in a bowl.

Place the cabbage in a large bowl and toss with just enough dressing to coat.

Transfer to serving bowls and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
