Ingredients
Quantity | Ingredient | |
---|---|---|
2½ | tablespoon | Garlic -- chopped (opt) |
5 | mediums | Chilies (or to taste) |
½ | cup | Vinegar |
¾ | cup | Sugar |
1½ | teaspoon | Salt |
Nam Pla (Thai fish sauce) -- | ||
See note below |
Directions
Puree chilies (and garlic, if used) in vinegar in a blender and pour into a small saucepan. Add sugar and salt. Cook over low heat until the liquid is syrupy, stirring constantly. Cool and serve. Great with fried spring rolls. NOTE: Store the sauce in a glass jar in the fridge. It'll keep up to a month. Reheat in the microwave about 1 minute before serving. NOTE: (Added by Terry) Most Thai restaurants I've eaten in also include a spall amount of Nam Pla in the sweet/sour sauce. The fish sauce is very strong so add and taste a few drops at a time.
