  • Dried Shrimp and Chili Relish

    Fiery Thai-Style Dried Shrimp and Chili Relish (Nam Prik Goong Siap)

    Ingredients:

    1/2 cup dried shrimp

    6–8 dried red chilies (adjust to spice level), soaked in warm water

    2 cloves garlic

    2 shallots, peeled and halved

    1 tablespoon fish sauce

    1 tablespoon lime juice

    1/2 teaspoon palm sugar (or brown sugar)

    1 tablespoon vegetable oil

    Optional: chopped cilantro or sliced scallions for garnish

    Directions:

    In a dry skillet over medium heat, toast the dried shrimp until fragrant, about 1–2 minutes. Remove and set aside.

    In the same pan, lightly char the garlic and shallots until softened and slightly blackened, about 3–5 minutes.

    Drain the soaked chilies and remove stems.

    Using a mortar and pestle or food processor, pound or blend the chilies, garlic, and shallots into a coarse paste.

    Add toasted dried shrimp and continue pounding or pulsing until well combined but still slightly chunky.

    Stir in fish sauce, lime juice, sugar, and vegetable oil until evenly mixed.

    Taste and adjust seasoning if needed—balance of salty, sour, sweet, and spicy should shine.

    Serve with raw vegetables, grilled meats, or sticky rice.
