Asian Salad Dressing

By á-1046

Ingredients

• Dressing
• 1 1/2 tablespoons lime juice (Key limes are recommended, but don’t fuss if you can’t find them)
• 1 1/2 tablespoons palm sugar simple syrup [see Note up top] or 1 tablespoon water + 1 teaspoon dark brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon Thai fish sauce
• 1 1/2 teaspoons (1 large clove) very thinly sliced garlic
• 2 fresh Thai chiles, preferably green, thinly sliced (more or less to taste)

Preparation

Step 1

Make the dressing: Place the lime juice, palm syrup or dark brown sugar and water, fish sauce, garlic and chiles in the same wok or skillet. Set it over medium heat and heat the mixture until it just begins to sizzle at the edges, less than 30 seconds.
