Khmer Mango Salad

We always know very well that salads made with mango are quite common in Cambodia, as well as other countries across Southeast Asia. Some people comment that the Cambodian (also known as Khmer) mango salad is identical to Thai papaya salad - except that the former is often made using grated green mango, rather than unripe papaya like the Thai version.


Khmer mango salad is a beautiful blend of tart fruits, salted fish, and sweet brown sugar, without any fiery chile to burn your mouth. Cambodian food is, once again, the softer, calmer cousin of Thailand's spicy cuisine!


The Khmer mango salad also contains certain elements included in the payasam papaya salad recipe, such as the lime juice combined with smashed nuts, shrimp paste or smoked fish, minced garlic, onions, palm sugar, mint, and fish sauce. This is a very nutritious meal that can be prepared either vegetarian or vegan, by getting rid of the drying shrimp and oyster sauce.
