20g dried shrimps
2 tbsp palm sugar

3 tbsp lemon juice
60g cherry tomatoes, quartered
30g roasted peanuts
200g unripe green papaya, peeled and grated into long, thin strips

FOR THE GARNISH

Green salad leave

In a mortar, roughly pound the garlic and chillies. Add the beans and pound,
then the shrimps and pound again until crushed.

Add the sugar, fish sauce and lemon juice and stir together. Add the tomatoes
and press with the pestle.

Add the peanuts and the papaya and stir until well mixed in.

Serve cold in a round dish lined with the salad leaves.
