Tum Tang (ตำแตง) or Papaya Salad with Cucumber
25 mins prepServes 4
My all time Thai favorite dish has to be papaya salad. It is so tasty and you can basically add anything that you want to eat in! Noodles, shrimp, crabs, bamboo shoots, literally anything (that you’re not allergic too).
start with mashing garlic and chill together then follow with green bean and lightly mash it.
add tomatoes, tamarind juice, Pla Deak, lime juice and lightly mash.
add papaya and pickles crab and lightly mash. Basically lightly mash everything as you add new ingredients but please you it lightly because you want to make sure that the papaya is still crunchy.
add cucumber 🥒 and very very lightly mash just until everything is coated with the dressing.
serve and enjoy!
