Big salad bowl
INSTRUCTIONS (how to make this recipe):
Place the palm sugar in a small saucepan with a heavy bottom together with 2 tablespoons of water and heat over medium heat until the sugar has melted and formed a thick syrup.
Place the chilies, 2 cloves of garlic, dried shrimp, and peanuts in a mortar and pound them into a coarse paste.
Then add the papaya. If it doesn't fit in your mortar, you can also use a sturdy bowl. Pound the coarse chili-garlic paste into the green papaya so that all the flavors are well absorbed.
Then add the palm sugar syrup along with the green beans and cherry tomatoes. Toss everything together well and season with the lime juice and fish sauce.
Serve with some extra chopped peanuts and a few lime slices if desired. Enjoy your meal!
