LEARN HOW TO MAKE A CRUNCHY GREEN PAPAYA SALAD RECIPE RIGHT AT HOME!

LAY HO LAY HO! I must warn you up front that this salad is incredibly delicious and extremely addictive. You may be tempted to enjoy this by itself or on a burger or in a taco. Join me in this episode and learn how to make a refreshingly crunchy green papaya salad recipe today!

Ingredients:
1 medium green papaya
25g Thai basil
25g mint
small piece ginger
1 Fuji apple
2 cups cherry tomatoes
2 pieces garlic
2 green chili peppers
1 red chili pepper
1 lime
1/3 cup rice vinegar
2 tbsp maple syrup
2 1/2 tbsp soy sauce
1 cup peanuts

Directions:
1. Peel the green papaya. Hold the papaya in one hand and the knife in the other. Then, very carefully and continuously chop at the papaya making lots of cuts (wear a non-cut glove if possible)
2. Carefully slice down the papaya making rustic looking shreds. Roll around the papaya and repeat until you see the inner seeds peeking through
3. Add the Thai basil and mint to the papaya. Very thinly slice the ginger and apple into matchsticks and add to the salad. Thinly slice the cherry tomatoes and add to the salad
4. Finely chop the garlic and chili peppers. Place them into a bowl along with the juice of 1 lime, rice vinegar, maple syrup, and soy sauce. Mix to combine
5. Pour the dressing onto the salad and mix to combine
6. Heat up a frying pan to medium heat and add in the peanuts. Toast for 4-5min. Then, transfer to a pestle and mortar. Coarsely crush the peanuts
7. Plate the salad and sprinkle some peanuts on top

  1. Are guys kidding me? This is not authentic papaya salad. It may be your version of it but it honestly looks like shit. Soy sauce? Maple syrup? Wtf!?? It supposed to be fish sauce and palm sugar. Apples? Wtf?! I guess if you’re selling this to westerns then maybe you can fool them. 3 peppers? Words of my uncle roger. “Use the right amount, not the white amount.” Don’t bring that shit near me.

  2. I can't wait to try making this salad today! It is one of my favorite salads on the planet! One little crunch that we love to add to ours is to buy the tiny frozen anchovies( any good asian market) and quickly deep fry them till golden….draining on a paper towel…before topping on the salad. It's a lovely salty crunch to add for many salads! Thank you for a beautiful, relaxing video…you have a lovely voice and speed with which to teach us!

  3. That is a gorgeous technique for cutting the papaya. This is undoubtedly one of my favorite Thai dishes, I'm so excited to try your recipe. Really beautifully done, both recipe and the shooting of this video! You found yourself a new subscriber, thank you ✌🏼
