Equipment

  • Bowl
  • Spoon

Ingredients

  • ½ Raw papaya of a small papaya
  • 1 Carrot big
  • Cilantro a few chopped
  • 1 teaspoon Roasted peanuts crushed

For dressing

  • 1 1/2 Honey Tablespoon
  • 1 Lemon juice teaspoon
  • Chili flakes as required
  • Salt as required

Instructions

  • Peel the skin of raw papaya and carrot. Deseed papaya.
  • Grate papaya and carrot.
  • Mix all the ingredients for dressing in a separate bowl. Pour this dressing over the grated papaya and carrot.
  • Give a nice stir. Top it with cilantro and crushed peanuts. Serve immediately.

Notes

  1. When you choose papaya, make sure it is completely raw without any yellow/orange or soft spots. This will help you grate it evenly.
  2. You can adjust any ingredients here as per your preference. If you don’t like your salad sweet, then reduce the quantity of honey and use 1 ½ tsp of lemon juice.
  3. If you want spicy, increase the quantity of chili flakes or add chopped green chilies.
