Papaya and Beef Jerky Salad
Papaya and Beef Jerky Salad
Papaya and beef jerky salad is a popular street food in Vietnam. It’s usually served in a plastic bag with a pair of chopsticks. The jerky used in this salad is fruit flavored, so it will be sweeter than jerky that you are used to. You can find this type of jerky at any Asian market, along with already shredded fresh papaya.
