Tam Som ຕໍາສົ້ມ ( Tam Mak Hoong ຕໍາໝາກຫຸ່ງ ) aka Lao Green Papaya Salad for snack before dinner in Vientiane, Laos.

A relative who came back from Luang Prabang on 5:00 PM flight gave a few bags of Tam Som as food souvenirs. The salad was partially prepared and all we had to do was to mix the ingredients together.

The Tam Mak Hoong was perfect with Luang Prabang fried mushroom ( ເຫັດບົດຊົງເຄື່ອງ ຫວງ​ພະ​ບາງ ). It was a delicious snack for everyone in the family to enjoy until dinner.
