Ingredients

Servings:2
  • 2 cups Green papaya, shredded
  • 2 pieces Salted duck eggs
  • 3 pieces Garlic cloves
  • 4 pieces Bird's eye chilies
  • 1/2 cup Long beans, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 6 pieces Cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons Palm sugar
  • 2 tablespoons Fish sauce
  • 3 tablespoons Lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon Dried shrimp(optional)
  • 2 tablespoons Roasted peanuts

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat your grill or oven to 400°F (200°C) and grill the whole salted eggs for 10 minutes to develop a smoky aroma.

  2. 2

    Peel the grilled salted eggs and cut them into quarters, setting them aside for the final assembly.

  3. 3

    In a large mortar and pestle, pound the garlic and chilies together until they form a coarse paste.

  4. 4

    Add the long beans and dried shrimp to the mortar, bruising them lightly with the pestle.

  5. 5

    Add the palm sugar, fish sauce, and lime juice, stirring with a spoon while lightly pounding to dissolve the sugar.

  6. 6

    Toss in the shredded green papaya and cherry tomatoes, pounding gently while turning the mixture with a spoon until well combined.

  7. 7

    Add the roasted peanuts and half of the grilled salted egg pieces, folding them in gently so they don't break apart completely.

  8. 8

    Transfer to a serving plate and top with the remaining grilled salted egg pieces for presentation.
