Instructions

  1. Peel the green papaya, cut it in half, remove the seeds and grate the flesh into fine strips or use a mandoline.
  2. Finely slice the red onion and the chili, removing the chili seeds if you want less heat.
  3. In a salad bowl, mix the lime juice, coconut oil and salt.
  4. Add the papaya, onion and chili, then toss well.
  5. Let it marinate for 10 minutes so the papaya soaks up the juice, adjust the seasoning and serve cool.

Variations and tips

With shrimp. Add cooked peeled shrimp to make it a complete dish.
