Thai Fruit & Shrimp Salad (Yam Polamal)
Yield: 4 Servings
2 c Assorted fruits *
2 tb Oil
1 Shallot; thinly sliced
3 Garlic cloves; thinly sliced
Juice of 1 lime
1 ts Kosher salt
1 ts Sugar; or to taste
1/4 Cooked shrimp

Recipe courtesy of Chalie Amatyakul, director, Thai Cooking School at The
Oriental, Bangkok. Reprinted from "Southeast Asian Cooking," by Jay Harlow
(Ortho Books, 1987).
Cut the fruit into bite-sized pieces. If using pomelo, peel the individual
sections and break them apart into grains about the size of a grape seed.
Toss apple or pear slices in a little citrus juice to keep them from
oxidizing.
Using a small skillet or saucepan, heat the oil over low heat and gently
fry the shallot and garlic in it until lightly browned. Remove and drain on
paper towels. Discard the oil or reserve it for another use.
Combine the lime juice, salt and sugar (if used) in a medium bowl and stir
to dissolve. Add the fruits, shrimp and half the garlic and shallot: toss
to coat evenly with dressing. Taste for seasoning and adjust if necessary.
Transfer to a serving dish and garnish with the remaining garlic and
shallot, peanuts and chile shreds.
Serves 4.
