thai pomelo salad

My mom left me with a huge pomelo after her mid-autumn party on Sunday and warned me that it is going to be too ripe to eat after Monday, so I decided to use it as a dish for dinner!

Success:
It looks so Thai! Swadeeka.... It was really refreshing and I liked the added crunch that the peanuts gave to the salad.

Failure:
I couldn't find Thai lime and had to use big limes instead, and it was really a compromise on the taste. LR and myself did think that it wasn't sour enough. Also the pomelo was indeed ripe and very juicy, so after tossing the salad, there was swimming pool of 'soup' which I honestly didn't mind as I was happily slurping it down.
