Carrot Thai Spicy Salad (Som-Tam-Carrot)

We originally use raw papaya and green bean but it is quite rare and 

expensive here to find papaya. So, carrot is the best option. 

We can also apply the same salad dressing for mixed fruits and corn too. 

This dish is quite diet meal I can recommend ;)

All favour in one taste!

 Ingredients for 1 person

2 sliced medium carrots                   

3 cherry tomatoes, cut in half                               

some sliced cucumber

20 gr of roasted cashew nut / coarse roasted almond

5 scampi, 3-minute-boiled in boiling water and dipped in cold water immediately (This makes scampi crispy and sweet)

1-2 pounded red chili / dried chili (optional, or depends on how spicy you like)
