Ingredients
3 cups papaya planks (like steak-cut french fries)
1 yellow onion, sliced
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
4 cloves garlic, sliced thinly
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon fresh ginger strips
Leaves from 1 sprig fresh cilantro
Leaves from 1 sprig fresh thyme
Juice of 1 fresh lime
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Directions
- Add the papaya, onion, sugar and vinegar to a medium saucepan. Bring to a simmer and cook, uncovered, until the papaya is soft and the liquid has reduced slightly, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and cool completely over a bowl of crushed ice.
- Stir in the garlic, olive oil, ginger, cilantro, thyme and lime juice. Season to taste with salt and pepper and serve.
