Yield Makes 4 servings (about 2/3 cup dressing)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 firm-ripe papaya (10 to 12 oz), halved lengthwise
1 tablespoon finely grated peeled fresh ginger
1 tablespoon minced onion
1 tablespoon chopped fresh tarragon
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon dry mustard
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 cup vegetable oil
Lettuce leaves

Steps:

  • Scrape seeds from papaya and coarsely chop enough seeds to measure 2 tablespoons. Discard remaining seeds, then peel papaya halves and slice.
  • Press ginger in a fine-mesh sieve or a garlic press into a small bowl to extract juice (about 1 teaspoon), discarding pulp. Whisk in chopped papaya seeds, onion, tarragon, garlic, mustard, lemon juice, salt, and pepper and add oil in a slow stream, whisking until emulsified.
  • Divide lettuce and papaya slices among 4 plates and drizzle with dressing.
