Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon white sugar
- 1 tablespoon vegan fish sauce, or soy sauce, the original recipe uses fish sauce
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 2 tablespoon warm water, or more, adjust to your taste
- 1 small clove garlic, minced
- some chili, finely sliced or minced
Instructions
- Finely chop the garlic and slice the chili into thin rings. Combine all ingredients in a bowl and mix well.
- Let it sit for a few minutes to allow the flavors to meld, then use as a dipping sauce for summer rolls or as an asian salad dressing.
Notes
- Customizing: Feel free to tweak the recipe to suit your taste. More garlic, less chili, a bit of rice vinegar – make it your own!
- Carrots: Add one tablespoon of shredded carrot for a bit of color and texture.
- Chili: Use any kind of red chili and adjust to your spice preference. Thai chilies are great for that extra fiery touch.
- Storage: Store the sauce in a clean mason jar in the refrigerator for up to a week.
