is a variation of the well-known papaya salad from Isaan. Garlic, Thai chilis and palm sugar are pounded in a clay mortar, then
mixed with fermented fish sauce and lime juice. In this dressing, strips of unripe papaya and further ingredients such as tomatoes, snake beans and peanuts are
combined by gentle pounding. The resulting salad is then mixed with cooled or lukewarm rice noodles. Additional ingredients such as
Moo Yor can also be added. This dish is also known as “Som Tam Sua” (
).
