Som Tam is such a simple stuff but big in flavours - this is the reason why I love Som Tam so much!! No hassles in preparing – you don’t even have to use your wok/frying pan, oil and switch the gas on. Som Tam, it is a dish that I have been eating since young, it has become part of my life. It is probably one of the best friends to my taste buds! Once in a while, when my taste buds cry for help, especially for sweetness, sourness, and spiciness at the same time, Som Tam is what comes to my mind!




Papaya (shredded), 400g

Garlic, 4 cloves

Green Thai chili, 2-3

Cherry tomatoes, 10

Long beans, 80g

Fish sauce, 3-4 tsp

Lime juice, 4-5 tsp

Dried shrimps, 20g

Peanuts (toasted), 40g

Palm sugar, 3-4 tbsp


ENJOY Som

When I was a kid I used to pray every night for a new Bike
And Then I realized that the God doesn't work that way, So I stole one and asked
Him to forgive me.



When I was a young lad I always wanted a Sexy wife then I Discovered there are None in The uk, But Plenty In THE LAND OF SMILE'S
