Categories     appetizer

Time 55m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 24

1 red onion, sliced
2 green papayas, seeded, peeled and shredded
2 carrots, peeled and shredded
2 teaspoons Vietnamese garlic-chile sauce
3 cloves garlic, minced
3 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons fish sauce
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 cup chopped fresh mint
1/4 cup chopped peanuts, for garnish
2 pounds peeled rock shrimp
1 tablespoon peanut oil, plus extra for brushing
2 1/2 teaspoons Asian sesame oil
1 (4-ounce) package Japanese rice noodles
1/2 cup peeled and shredded carrot
3/4 cup good-quality mayonnaise
1 teaspoon rice vinegar
2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
12 (7-inch-square) lumpia wrappers
1 egg beaten with 1 tablespoon water, for egg wash

Steps:

  • To prepare the salad, place the onion, papaya, and carrots in a bowl and mix well. In another bowl, combine the chile sauce, garlic, sugar, fish sauce, vinegar, and lime juice. Adjust the seasoning. Pour the chile sauce mixture over the papaya mixture and toss well. Add the cilantro and mint and toss well. Garnish with the peanuts.
  • Squeeze any excess moisture out of the shrimp. In a small pan, heat the 1 tablespoon peanut oil and 2 teaspoons of the sesame oil over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and saute for 3 to 4 minutes, until pink and starting to curl. Drain the shrimp in a colander and set aside. Bring a saucepan filled with water to a boil. Place the rice noodles in a bowl and pour the boiling water over them. Allow to soak for 5 minutes, until softened. Drain and set aside.
  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
  • Mix together the shrimp, rice noodles, carrot, mayonnaise, remaining 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil, vinegar, sesame seeds, chile sauce, and salt. Add the cilantro and mix well.
  • To prepare the lumpia, lay a wrapper on a clean work surface with the point facing you. Spread 2 tablespoons of the shrimp mixture evenly on the bottom one-third of each lumpia wrapper. Brush all 4 edges with the egg wash. Fold the bottom up over the filling and fold in the sides toward the middle. Starting at the bottom, roll up to form a tiny bundle. Repeat with the remaining filling and wrappers. Brush with peanut oil.
  • Place the lumpia on a baking sheet and bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until golden brown.
  • To serve, place 1/2 cup of the salad on each plate. Cut the lumpia in half diagonally. Stand 4 pieces of lumpia, point up, on each plate around the salad.

GREEN PAPAYA SALAD



Green Papaya Salad image

This tangy, piquant salad is a version of the classic Vietnamese dish, which can be served as a first course, or a fiery side dish next to simple grilled meats or fish. It comes from Chris Shepherd, a Houston chef who is trying to tell the story of his city's food, among the most diverse in the country. If Thai chiles are too hot to bear (or not available), substitute other, milder peppers like serrano or jalapeƱo. Just don't use regular papaya even if it seems unripe; it won't have the right flavor and texture as a true green papaya. And if you can't get green papaya, you can make this with green mango, seeded cucumber, cabbage or kohlrabi. The intense, funky dressing will work with any practically any cooling, crunchy vegetable you've got.

THAI GREEN PAPAYA SALAD (SOM TUM) WITH GRILLED THAI SHRIMP



Thai Green Papaya Salad (Som Tum) with Grilled Thai Shrimp image

Provided by Jeff Corwin

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h35m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 25

1 large or 2 medium green papaya (see Cook's Note)
1/2 pound green string beans
4 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
4 tablespoons Thai fish sauce, nam pla
4 tablespoons palm sugar, available in most Mexican, Latin or Asian supermarkets, or substitute brown sugar, or white sugar
2 large carrots (peeled and shredded to the same strip-size as papaya)
1/4 cup loosely chopped cilantro leaves
1/4 cup loosely chopped mint
4 tablespoons dried Thai shrimp, optional
2 to 4 Thai chiles also called prik chiles, minced
1/4 cup unsalted peanuts, toasted and lightly crushed
Jeff's Thai Grilled Shrimp, recipe follows
Jasmine sticky rice, or steamed vermicelli rice noodles, optional, as an accompaniment
1/2 cup Thai sweet chili and garlic sauce (recommended: Mae Ploy now available in most grocery stores)
1/4 cup hoisin sauce
2 cloves garlic, finely minced
1/4 cup ponzu sauce, or substitute the juice of 1 lime
1 1/2 teaspoons soy sauce
Splash Thai fish sauce, nam pla
1 teaspoon sriracha sauce
1 teaspoon curry powder
1 teaspoon ground ginger
4 or 5 sprigs mint, leaves removed and finely chopped, or substitute Thai basil
Handful cilantro leaves, finely chopped
3 pounds large shrimp

Steps:

  • Peel the papaya (I use a standard vegetable peeler), then slice papaya in half and scoop out black, slippery round seeds and some of the stringy flesh, but be careful not to scoop into good, firm flesh for the salad. Shred the papaya on a mandoline or a box grater. Set aside. Snip off the tips of the green beans. Bring a large pot of water to a boil over medium heat and add the beans. Cook until crisp tender, about 3 to 4 minutes. Drain and quickly add the beans to ice water. Cut the beans in half, about 2-inches in length and add them to a large bowl. In a large mixing bowl whisk the lime juice, fish sauce, and sugar, until the sugar is dissolved. Mix in the shredded papaya, green beans and carrots until well coated (I like to use tongs for this). Toss in the cilantro, mint, and dried shrimp. Then mix in the hot chiles, to taste. Let salad stand for 20 minutes or up to 2 hours, covered in the refrigerator.
  • Before serving, mix in most of the crushed peanuts, reserving a few tablespoons for garnish. When serving, mound the salad in center of a plate and sprinkle the remaining peanuts on top. The dish can be served on its own, or with Thai Grilled Shrimp and Thai jasmine or sticky rice, or with steamed vermicelli-rice noodles.
  • Preheat grill to medium heat. In a large bowl whisk all the marinade ingredients together. Add the shrimp and let marinate for up to 1 hour. Grill the shrimp 4 to 6 minutes each side until they begin to curl, get pink in color and firm up. Do not over cook or they will get rubbery. Brush the shrimp with the marinade during grilling. Put the remaining marinade in a small saucepan and bring to boil over high heat. Cook the marinade for at least 2 minutes and serve it as a sauce on the side. Serve the shrimp with the papaya salad. Cook's Note: This marinade/sauce is great with chicken thighs and pork tenderloin. If using chicken or pork then double the marinade recipe, marinate for 4 hours, and grill accordingly.
