Green Papaya Salad with Seafood or Poultry
Green Papaya Salad with Seafood or Poultry is a delightful dish perfect for 4 servings. Start by preparing the dressing—simply mix together the diced red chili, grated garlic, palm sugar, lime juice, fish sauce, sesame oil, and rice wine vinegar until the sugar dissolves. Next, peel and shred 1 kg of green papaya or green mango, removing any seeds if using mango. Then, gather 400 g of cooked trout or prawns, 70 g of roughly chopped roasted peanuts, 6 shredded spring onions, 400 g of halved cherry tomatoes, and a handful of torn Thai basil leaves. Combine all the salad ingredients with the dressing, ensuring everything is evenly coated.
