Papaya Salad

Papaya SaladAn experiment. Made off the top of my head. (We wanted green papaya salad but shockingly! the IGA doesn’t have unripe papayas 😉 Will have to look elsewhere…)

So the salad is just papaya, green onions, and cilantro. A less-ripe papaya would’ve been good. This one was really soft. The dressing is fish sauce, lime juice, sambal oelek, sugar, ginger, and a little oil. All measurements approximate, because >cough< I don’t actually measure.

  • 1 papaya, cubed
  • 3 green onions, sliced
  • cilantro (handful, chopped coarsely)
  • 2 tbsp fish sauce
  • 1 tbsp lime juice
  • 1/2 tbsp sambal oelek
  • 1/2 tbsp canola oil
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • grated ginger
