Vegetarian green papaya som tam
A crunchy Thai salad of green papaya, long beans and tomatoes with a tangy, sweet and spicy dressing. This vegetarian version uses soy sauce instead of fish sauce.
Som tam combines shredded green papaya with garlic, chili, lime, palm sugar and peanuts. The ingredients are lightly pounded and mixed so the dressing coats the crisp strips. Preparation and total time are practical estimates for these quantities; serve it freshly made.
