Green Papaya Salad
The papaya or mango needs to be almost crunchy, so find the most underripe example you can.

Total time:
10 minutes
Serves: 2
Ingredients
- ½ very underripe papaya or mango
- 2 cloves garlic, peeled
- 1-2 fresh red chillies, or to taste
- 50g French beans
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 2 tbsp lime juice
- 1 tbsp Thai fish sauce
- 1 tomato, deseeded and cut into strips
- 1 tbsp chopped roasted almonds
Method
- Peel the papaya or mango, discarding any seeds. With a sharp knife, cut into julienne strips.
- Pound the garlic and chilli together in a pestle and mortar. Cut the green beans into short lengths and pound very lightly, just to bruise them. Put the garlic, chilli and bean mixture in a bowl.
