I love to eat thai foods and have been trying locate the carb count for green papaya. I make a green papaya salad and was hoping that you could help me find the carb count.

Thank you for any help. :D

Hi mama!

I love green papaya too and sometimes make it at home to go with steak. It's a little bit on the carby side though.

Here is the nutrition count for 100 gr - 3 1/2 oz. - of raw green papaya:

Calories: 27
Protein 0.7 gms
Fats 0.2 gms
Fibre 0.9 gms
Carbohydrates 5.7 gms

I also found a fairly authentic recipe here which has the nutrition count at the end:

Thank you for posting the carb count. I am planning on making my salad without green beans and tomato. Thanks again.

I am planning on making my salad without green beans and tomato.
And without the sugar too I hope! ;)
