Natty style : Thai Radish Salad Recipe

Thai Papaya salad or Som Tom is a staple dish from Thailand. The crunchy from papaya adds the fun part in to the dish with a tangy, salty and sweet make these salads one of a kind.

Traditionally, you have to use clay mortar with a wooden pestle, so you can pound and mix all the ingredients together. For this recipe, you won't need for the mortar because I would like to represent the Thai flavor so you can enjoy the tasty salad that has been famous everywhere in the world.

And yet I substitute :

palm sugar with brown sugar simple syrup to make it easy for people who are far a way from Asian store or you don't have one near you.
