Ingredients

For 2 servings:

• 2 cups pomelo, broken into chunks (about 1 average-sized fruit)
• 2 tablespoons shredded unsweetened coconut, toasted
• 2 tablespoons dried shrimp, ground
• 2 tablespoons roasted unsalted peanuts, roughly chopped
• 1 small shallot, thinly sliced
• ½ stem lemongrass, thinly sliced
• 1 makrut lime leaf, finely chopped
• 3 tablespoons mint leaves, roughly torn
• 3 tablespoons cilantro leaves, roughly torn (optional)

For the dressing:

• 1 small Thai chili, minced (adjust to taste)
• 2 teaspoons coconut sugar or brown sugar
• 1 ½ tablespoons lime juice
• ½ tablespoon fish sauce (or reduced-sodium soy sauce for lower sodium)

Instructions

1. Remove the top of the pomelo, score down the sides, and peel off the skin and pith. Break the fruit into chunks, discarding any membranes.
2. In a dry skillet over medium heat, toast the shredded coconut until golden brown. Set aside to cool.
3. Use a spice grinder or food processor to grind the dried shrimp until they are fluffy.
4. Thinly slice the shallot and lemongrass. Remove the rib from the lime leaf, then finely chop. Roughly chop or tear the mint and cilantro leaves. Lightly chop the peanuts if desired.
5. Mix the minced chili, coconut sugar, lime juice, and fish sauce in a serving bowl. Add more sugar or lime juice to adjust the sweetness or tartness to taste.
6. Add the pomelo chunks, toasted coconut, ground shrimp, peanuts, shallot, lemongrass, lime leaf, mint, and cilantro to the bowl with the dressing. Gently toss to combine, taking care not to break the pomelo pieces.
