1 Peel and grate the papaya into thin strips. Place the strips in a muslin cloth and squeeze out as much of the water from the papaya as possible. Then place the strips on a wide platter to dry in the sun.
2 Bring the vinegar, sugar and salt to a boil in a large saucepan. Add the papaya strips and simmer for 5 minutes.
3 Add the rest of the ingredients and stir to mix. Cover the saucepan, turn off the heat and set aside to cool.
4 Transfer the cooled pickles to a sterilized jar or bottle.
Keeps for a month in the refrigerator.
