 Green papaya is the unripe papaya |
 Peel the green skin |
 Chop it! |
 You can also use a regular cheese grater with medium to large sized holes. |
 You can add carrot if you want |
 All veggies you need for cooking |
 A clay mortar and wooden pestle |
 Ok we see what else we need more... |
 Garlic and Chili We need a clove and a couple chili |
 Palm Sugar 1-1/2 tablespoons |
 Dried Shrimp 1 table spoon |
 Lime 1 table spoon or more |
 About right! |
 |
 |
 Smash a clove of garlic and chili first |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 Add 1 1/2 tablespoon |
 But you can add more |
 Lime |
 For me I just squeeze it! |
 Add the green papaya |
 Tomato |
 Long bean |
 Good to have long finger nails, isn't it? |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 Use the pestle to push the mixture up in the mortar |
 And the spatula to push it down so that the mixture is mixed well |
 Make sure all mixed! |
 Then taste it if you want to add something more you can also do. |
