You can make the salad with boiled shrimp (shell and intestine remove), thinly sliced boiled lobster meat, thinly sliced boiled pork, or chicken. I have made my papaya salad with shrimp, lobster, octopus, pork, chicken and a combo of shrimp and pork. They are all very tasty. Today I made my salad using fresh garden herbs because I have it growing in my garden.

Method:
1) When ready to eat toss the papaya, herbs, chili pepper, and nước chấm in a large bowl.
