Seungwoo Dad's Som Tum

A Thai salad with the crisp texture of green papaya, enhanced by the sweet and sour flavors of fish sauce and lime, making it a perfect match for grilled meats.

Ingredients needed 2 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • If green papaya is difficult to find, you can substitute it with a not-too-mushy Korean melon or crisp radish salad for a different charm.
  • If lime or lime juice is unavailable, you can substitute with vinegar. However, this will make the sourness stronger, so you'll need to add a little more sugar to balance the flavors.
  • Households without fish sauce can easily substitute it with Korean fish sauce (Kkanari or Myeolchi fish sauce).

Recommended for

  • Those tired of the usual ssamjang or onion sauce with grilled meats and looking for an exotic combination.
  • Those who want to recreate the fresh, spicy, and sour salad taste of Southeast Asia at home.
  • Those preparing an exotic home party menu or a special side dish for grilled meats.
