Ensalada Mamon (Green Papaya Salad)

Instructions

1. Peel the green papaya, cut it in half, remove the seeds and grate the flesh into long strands using a coarse grater or a knife.
2. Put the grated papaya in a bowl, sprinkle with salt and let it rest for 15 minutes so it releases some liquid.
3. Rinse it quickly under cold water, then squeeze it firmly between your hands to drain it well.
4. Finely slice the chillies and the onion, then mix them with the papaya.
5. Add the diced tomatoes, vinegar, sugar and lime juice, then mix well.
6. Let it marinate in the fridge for at least 1 hour before serving so the flavours can develop.
