Thai Chili Sauce
Prik Nam Pla | พริกน้ำปลา
Prik Nam Pla is my favorite Thai chili sauce and the classic chili dip in Thailand. Prik Nam Pla is used to flavor dishes with rice, sticky rice and fried rice and vegetables, curries, soups and stir fry dishes.Prik Nam Pla consists of Thai Chili (Prik) and fish sauce (Nam Pla).
In Thailand Prik Nam Pla is served in a tiny bowl with every meal, no matter what you order. In Thai restaurants the chili sauce is already on each table. Prik Nam Pla is used for seasoning and refined flavor. But beware, the sauce is hellish hot.
The Thai Chili Sauce seems to be a very simple recipe. Sometimes you get only fishsauce with chili. Try my recipe. It is important for the good taste of chili dip that necessarily only the freshest ingredients are used and a bit of sugar is added to the salt taste to refine a bit.
The scent of Prik Nam Pla is the taste of Thailand. Try my recipe.
You will be amazed.
