mama's papaya salad recipe
this is a very refreshing dish
makes about 4 servings
1/2 of green papaya - shred the papaya
1 carrot - shred the carrot
12 or more cherry tomatoes - cut those in halves
dressing ingredients:
2 tablespoons of fish sauce - suggest using the tiparos brand, but whatever you have available is okay
2 cloves of garlic
2 tablespoons of sugar - use sugar cane sugar - i found tapunzel which is unrefined and unbleached organic whole cane sugar
1/2 of lemon and squeeze the juice
the tool shown above a mortar and a pestle
pound or mash the garlic cloves
add papaya shreds, carrot shreds and tomatoes half and pound more
then add the rest of the ingredients and pound some more
if you like sweeter taste add more sugar, if you like more sour taste just add more lemon
and for a burst of flavor ... add some fresh chilly!
enjoy!
