Put everything in food processor minus the green onions (we use a coffee grinder) blend to a thick paste Trim roots off end of green onions and wash thoroughly a few times. I always like to get my work area ready. You don’t have to wear gloves but I think for sanitary reasons it’s good. Get a big bowl, put the green onions, and paste in. I like to get right in there and make sure everything is all coated. Since it’s able to sit in the fridge for weeks and up to months if stored properly it should be handled properly. But let’s get real these aren’t going to last that long!You can store in any airtight container. I like to you use this. A Mason jar works just as good too! Put on the counter over night, then store in fridge. We start eating them by the next day. But the flavours intensives as it ferments during the up and coming weeks. These are excellent as is, as a side, in soups, stirfrys. It’s such a simple recipe, yet very satisfying. Will last for a while in fridge if stored properly.
1/2TSP salt 2TBSP each Fish Sauce & cilantro Shallots, red onion, green onion, ginger (optional) 1TBSP roasted rice powder (optional) 2TBSP Sugar or honey 4TBSP Lime Juice Mix all above in bowl. Put in fridge to let all flavours settle for a couple of hours. Enjoy!
Served it up with some sliced baby green mangoes and green apples. This stuff goes well with just about every meat, seafood, sour fruits!! It’s become a favorite and a must have in our fridge!
This sauce is so versatile can be used for dipping sauces for a variety of things. Spring rolls, chicken wings, fried fish. You name it!
