Equal portions of:

Roasted peanuts
Shallots, cut into small chunks (1/4" to 1/2")
Ginger, cut into a fine dice
Lime pieces, cut so that each small piece (1/4"-1/2") contains a bit of the peel and a bit of the pulp
Toasted coconut

Sauce ingredients:
1/4 cup palm sugar
1/2 TB galangal root, finely minced
1/2 TB shallots, finely minced
2 TB mushroom-flavored soy sauce
1 TB water
1 TB tamarind water
1/4 tsp. white pepper powder
