Green Papaya Salad

When I presented this papaya salad to my friends, one of them asked me why I added cherry tomatoes. I told her to balance the sour of lemon and passion fruit. This is just to show that I made this on my own taste. If vinegar will be added here, I would definitely not eat it. ) I have this papaya in the refrigerator for over a week, that's why it turned out orange, it's almost ripe :)

2 cups green papaya, finely shredded
2 tablespoon peanuts, toasted
6 pieces cherry tomatoes, sliced
6 pieces green beans, sliced

For the dressing: Blend the following
2 cloves garlic
2 pieces shallots
1 piece chili
1 teaspoon salt (or fish sauce)
1 tablespoon brown sugar
2 tablespoon lime juice
1 passion fruit juice - I didn't remove the seeds :)
Place the shredded green papaya, green beans, and cherry tomatoes in a  salad bowl. Drizzle with dressing. Toss until well-mixed. Top with toasted peanuts.

Boiled shrimps and parsley can be added. Enjoy!
I love this, I will definitely make again :)
