Som Tum Thai Recipe Kit

Som Tum Thai (ส้มตำไทย) is a fresh, crunchy green papaya salad filled with sweet, sour, salty and spicy flavour.

Our Som Tum Thai Recipe Kit combines crisp green papaya, Thai yard-long beans and fresh chillies with Muay’s homemade family-recipe sauce. The dressing has already been prepared and balanced for you, making it easy to enjoy freshly made Som Tum without measuring several different sauce ingredients from scratch.

The papaya provides the familiar crisp base, while the long beans add extra crunch and the fresh chillies let you increase the heat to your taste. Muay’s sauce brings everything together with palm sugar, tamarind, fish sauce, citrus, chilli and garlic.

Your Som Tum Thai Recipe Kit includes:

• Fresh Green Papaya
• Thai Yard-Long Beans
• Fresh Chillies
• Muay’s Som Tum Thai Sauce

How many portions does it make?

Around 300g of shredded green papaya makes approximately two generous side portions. The exact amount may vary depending on the size and usable flesh of the papaya.

The sauce is supplied in a full 250ml bottle. Add it gradually according to your taste, and you should have some left for another batch of Som Tum.

What else will I need?

To make a fuller Som Tum Thai, simply add cherry tomatoes and roasted peanuts. Dried shrimp can also be added for extra savoury flavour, but this is optional.

Peel the papaya, remove the seeds and shred the flesh into thin strands. Lightly bruise the beans and chillies in a mortar or sturdy bowl, then add the papaya and sauce gradually. Toss everything together, add your tomatoes and toppings, and serve immediately while the papaya is still crisp.

You do not need a mortar and pestle to prepare the kit—a sturdy mixing bowl and two spoons will also work.
