Makes 180 ml (6 fl oz/¾ cup)

  • 1-2 hot red chillies
  • 1-2 cloves garlic
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 3 tablespoons fish sauce
  • 1 tablespoon mild vinegar
  • 3 tablespoons water

Remove the stems and seeds of chillies and chop the chillies very finely. I advise wearing disposable gloves for this task. Smash the cloves of garlic against a wooden board with the flat of a knife and lift off the skins. Sprinkle with sugar and work into a fine pure with the knife blade. Combine all the ingredients in a bowl. Some versions add a little finely shredded carrot.
