Cut the papaya into thin strips and drain excess liquid so the dressing stays balanced.
Press the main ingredients lightly in a mortar, so the fibers take in the sauce without breaking.
Dissolve the sugar with lime juice and fish sauce, balancing the sharpness.
Toss the main ingredients with the sauce for 1 minute without crushing them.
Transfer the salad to a serving plate and bring it to the table while the sauce is glossy.
💡 Tip: Cut the papaya into fine julienne; the sauce coats every strand.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve with grilled chicken.
