6 dried shrimp
a small piece of trassi
2 cloves garlic
30 ml (2 tbsp) fish sauce

Remove the seeds from the chilies and chop. Pound or process them with the
dried shrimp. Heat the trassi. Crumble it and pound with the garlic, then
combine all the ingredients except the lime juice and process. Add the lime
juice, a little at a time, so that the sauce remains fairly thick. Store in
