Papaya Salad and Mango Sticky Rice
The papaya salad and mango sticky rice are shown here. Soooooooo goooood...
Papaya salad is made by shaved carrots and unripened green papayas, mashed in a mortar-and-pestle with lime juice, fish sauce, sugar paste, roasted peanuts, raw garlic, tomatoes and chilies. It's spicy, tangy, cheap and delicious.
Mango sticky rice needs no introduction. It's simply sticky rice doused in sweetened coconut milk and topped with half a ripe mango. This has always been one of my favorites, and this being mango season, we hit this one hard.
