Step by Step Method

Step 1

Peel the papaya then grate it into thin strips. Coat the papaya strips well with 2 teaspoons of salt. Rinse and squeeze out any juice. Pat dry with paper towels.

Mix the sugar, vinegar, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt in a large saucepan. Add the papaya strips and simmer for about 5 minutes. Add the carrots and bell peppers and simmer for 5 minutes more, or until carrots are tender. Drain and arrange in a bowl.

Step 3

Soak the ginger slices in hot water and drain. Toss ginger and raisins with the cooked vegetables.

Set aside to cool then transfer to a container and cover. If not using immediately, store in the refrigerator.
