  Som Tam — Thai Green Papaya Salad

  The fiery, addictive salad of Thailand's northeast: shreds of crisp green papaya pounded in a clay mortar with garlic, chillies, lime, fish sauce and palm sugar, plus tomatoes, long beans and a handful of peanuts. Som tam is hot, sour, salty and sweet all at once, with a bruised-not-blended texture that only a mortar and pestle gives. Made to order and eaten with sticky rice, it's the taste of a Thai street stall.

  Shiro Wat — Ethiopian Spiced Chickpea Stew

  The ultimate Ethiopian comfort food: a smooth, savoury stew made from shiro — finely milled, spiced chickpea (or broad bean) flour — simmered with onion, garlic, berbere and spiced butter into a rich, creamy, nourishing sauce. Shiro wat is everyday sustenance, fasting food (when made with oil), and a national favourite, scooped up with injera. Quick, humble and deeply flavourful, it proves that some of the best dishes are also the simplest.
