Make-Ahead:
This salad is best eaten as soon as it is made.
In a large bowl, place the lime juice. Gradually whisk in both of the oils. Season the dressing to taste with salt.
Using a mandolin or other vegetable slicer, cut the papaya into long thin strips.
Add the papaya strips, green onions, chile, and thinly sliced mint to the dressing and toss to coat. Mound the salad on plates. Sprinkle with the cashews and whole mint leaves, and serve immediately.
