Ingredients

• 1 garlic clove

• 2-3 Thai chilis

• handful of cilantro

• 3 spoonfuls of fish sauce

• water (not tap!)

• 1/2 tbsp sugar

Preparation

1. Smash garlic and Thai chilis. I use a mortar and pestle, but you can use whatever you have!

2. Pour fish sauce into a small bowl.

3. Add in the smashed garlic and peppers. Pour in some water to fill the bowl (see photo). Add sugar and mix well!

4. Chop cilantro and top it off. I use this sauce for mainly steak and oysters! It's also really good for seafood, i.e. crab, crawfish, etc.
