CHUNKY AVOCADO-PAPAYA SALSA



Chunky Avocado-Papaya Salsa image

This is based on a recipe in Kim Sunée's wonderful new book, "A Mouthful of Stars" (Andrews McMeel). Her recipe is more of a salad, a fusion of Thai and Mexican flavors. I loved the idea of combining avocado and papaya, two subtle, creamy fruits, with crunchy, bright-tasting Asian pears and spicy chiles. The first time I saw the recipe I wanted to test it right away, but I didn't have Asian pears. So I used an apple, and loved it. It's the sweet, crunchy fruit that does the trick, and apples and Asian pears both work. There are onions in the original recipe but I've made them optional.
