Papaya Salad , Som Tam
Som Tum is quite simple to make. The main ingredients are green papaya, green beans, tomoato, dried prawns, unsalted roasted peanuts, chillies, garlic and lime juice. Pounded together in a mortar using a pestle. The sound it makes is "pok pok".
Som Tum (papaya salad) is best served with sticky rice and grilled chicken. That is the way I like it. But you can have fish instead.
When you come to buy Papaya Salad, it is nearly always prepared in front of you. This way you can tell them how many spicies you want! I like mine hot. Papaya Salad with sticky rice from a roadside stall will cost you about 25-30 baht.
