dont really miss green papaya salad but i really miss the LOTUS STEM salad.....
I love green papaya salad so much, especially the cheap ones that we can find on street, that is served with dried beef, and the killing chilly sauce ;-). I tried the Thai papaya salad (not in Thailand though), and still prefer Vnese one.
Remind me of my students day ;-)
Hi, Thanks for your comments, This is a very popular dish in Viet Nam and you can make it at home easily. You can make it with dried beef or somethings else instead of prawns as well. Good luck and enjoy!!!
