Green Papaya Salad

RECIPE INGREDIENTS
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated lime zest
1/4 cup lime juice
2 tablespoons finely chopped palm sugar or packed brown sugar (see Tip)
2 tablespoons fish sauce
Hawaiian chiles or any fresh hot chiles minced, to taste
3 cups matchstick-cut or julienned green papaya (see Tip)
1/2 cup very thinly sliced Maui or other sweet onion
1/2 cup pea shoots cut into 3-inch pieces, or bean sprouts
Freshly ground pepper to taste

Tip: Palm sugar is an unrefined sweetener similar in flavor to brown sugar. Green papaya is underripe papaya that is green and firm. Look for it in Asian markets. If you can't find one, a ripe papaya will still taste delicious in this salad.

DIRECTIONS
Whisk lime zest, lime juice, sugar, fish sauce and chiles in a large bowl.

Add papaya, onion and pea shoots (or sprouts) to the vinaigrette; toss to combine. Sprinkle with pepper just before serving.
