Out here in San Diego, we aren’t used to humidity and lately it has been hot and really humid – even at the beach! Something that is always cool and refreshing with a kick is Green Papaya Salad! Plus, it’s another excuse to use my food processor :)

20g Dried shrimps
40g Peanuts (toasted)
3-4 tablespoon
Palm sugar
Directions:
Peel the green papaya and shred the papaya with a zigzag peeler.
