How to Make Thai Pickles Achat

  1. Combine julienned carrots, daikon radish, and green papaya in a large bowl. Sprinkle with salt and gently toss. Let stand for 30 minutes to draw out moisture.
  2. Rinse the vegetables under cold water and drain thoroughly. Squeeze out excess water with your hands or a clean kitchen towel.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together sugar, rice vinegar, fish sauce, and water until the sugar is dissolved.
  4. Add the minced garlic, sliced shallots, and sliced bird's eye chilies to the vegetable mixture.
  5. Pour the vinegar mixture over the vegetables and chilies. Gently toss to coat everything evenly.
  6. Transfer the mixture to a clean glass jar. Press down gently to submerge the vegetables in the liquid.
  7. Seal the jar tightly and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld.
  8. Once the pickles have reached your desired level of tang and flavor (the longer they sit, the more intense the flavors will be), enjoy! Serve as a side dish, snack, or with your favorite Thai-inspired meals.
