Candle's Tum Kanom Jeen

I am really into Kanom Jeen mood these days. I have been exploring with new creations. This dish is very similar to Som Tum but instead of Papaya, I used Kanom Jeen. The taste is richer because I used Salted Eggs in the sauce instead of Fish Sauce. This makes a great appetizer dish.
