Ingredients

- 3 tbsp fish sauce
- 1.5 tbsp fresh lime juice
- 2 tbsp garlic, finely chopped
- 2 tsp sugar
- 1-2 tsp water. Optional
Instructions

Thinly sliced Thai chilies and garlic. Mincing the garlic is fine, too, if you don't want to bite into a big chunk of garlic. The thicker you slice your chilies, the hotter each bite is, so keep that in mind when slicing them.

Add all the ingredients to a serving bowl and whisk together until the sugar dissolves. Adjust with more lime juice, fish sauce, sugar, and chilies if needing more heat! Let the sauce sit for 2-3 minutes to allow the ingredients to make a mini marinade. And that is it, my friends! Super simple!
