Ingredients
Sauce Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons fish sauce (can substitute with soy sauce for a vegetarian option)
- 2 tablespoons lime juice (fresh lime yields the best flavor)
- 1 tablespoon sugar (brown sugar can be used for a richer taste)
- 2 teaspoons chilies (adjust based on spice preference, using fresh or dried chilies)
Instructions
- Prepare the Chilies: If using fresh chilies, finely chop them to release their heat. For dried chilies, crush or chop them into small flakes to infuse the sauce effectively.
- Mix the Sauce: In a small bowl, combine the fish sauce (or soy sauce), lime juice, sugar, and chopped chilies. Stir well until the sugar dissolves completely to balance the flavors.
- Adjust Seasoning: Taste the sauce and adjust the lime juice, sugar, or chilies according to your preference for tanginess, sweetness, or spiciness.
- Serve: Use immediately as a dipping sauce for meats, seafood, grilled vegetables, or as a tangy salad dressing.
Notes
- For a vegetarian version, always substitute fish sauce with soy sauce or tamari.
- Use fresh lime juice for the brightest and most authentic flavor.
- Adjust the amount of chilies to control the heat level of the sauce.
- The sauce can be stored in the refrigerator for up to one week in an airtight container.
- Optional: Add finely chopped garlic or cilantro for extra flavor complexity.
