This sauce is delicious on just about anything including plain white rice. Wonderful on grilled shrimp. It is the sauce used for the Grilled Vietnamese Jumbo Shrimp on Sugarcane Sticks that I posted. Great recipe with many variations!

- 2 tablespoons white vinegar
- 1 red Thai chile, thinly sliced (2-3 more if you like it hot)

Directions

You don't have to use that much fish sauce in order to get the taste. My MIL only uses a few tablespoons per cup of water and her sauce is TO DIE FOR. I always request a bottle of it to take home whenever she makes it for dinner. I can never seem get the recipe from her because she says she doesn't measure anything, just eyeballs everything. I think she may just be too lazy to jot the recipe down. Anyway, I also omit the vinegar, it's really not needed in the sauce, so if you don't have it on hand, don't worry about it.
