Tip the cabbage into a large colander and sprinkle with 1 tsp of salt. Stir and leave to stand for 20 minutes, then mix again and lift out into a large bowl.

Pour the vinegar into a small pan with the sugar, star anise and orange peel, and heat over a low heat until just warm. Tip this over the cabbage, mix well, cover and set aside. The salad will keep for up to a day. Just before serving, toss with the orange slices, chillies and coriander, then drizzle with the olive oil.
