Instructions

  1. Peel the pomelo (see how to peel pomelo fruit in the recipe) leaving just the skin.
  2. Heat a wok or skillet over medium heat. Toast shredded coconut until golden brown and fragrant.
  3. Roast the peanuts.
  4. Chop the shallots into thin, even-sized pieces and fry until golden brown, do the same for the garlic.
  5. In a large mixing bowl, mix chili paste, fresh lime juice, salt, and palm sugar until the sugar is completely dissolved. If you have a mixing glove, you can knead with your hand. Then, add the fruit chunks and thoroughly coat them with the dressing.
  6. Add the remaining ingredients to the bowl (roasted peanuts, roasted coconut, fried shallots, fried garlic, kaffir lime leaves, and chilies) and toss to mix. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Use the nutrition card in this recipe as a guideline.
  • Bird's eye chilies or jinda chilies add a lot of heat with just 1 or 2 chilies, so use with caution.
